Carolina Panthers DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Carolina Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble caught three passes for 32 yards with no touchdowns in Sunday's 36-30 overtime win against the Arizona Cardinals. Tremble has been in and out of Carolina's lineup due to multiple injuries and the emergence of rookie tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders but has seen increased playing time and subsequent targets in recent weeks. This outing tied his second-most receptions and yards in a game this season. Much like his week-to-week production, Tremble's future with the Panthers remains unclear. Heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, he is not a viable fantasy option outside of deep league or TE premium formats.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver David Moore caught two passes for 39 yards in their 36-30 overtime win against the Arizona Cardinalsone of which was an 18-yard touchdown that extended Carolina's second-half lead. The seventh-year veteran was questionable coming into Sunday with a concussion but ended up suiting up and hauled in his second touchdown of the year while being Carolina's second-leading receiver in the win. Still, his week-to-week production left much to be desired this season, and he is not a likely fantasy option outside of deep leagues for Week 17 against Tampa Bay.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Adam Thielen caught five of his six targets for 43 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-30 overtime win over the Arizona Cardinals. The veteran route runner has found his 2024 footing over the last month, making himself a viable WR3/FLEX option over that stretch of play. As second-year quarterback Bryce Young has regained his confidence, Thielen has proven to be his most dependable and comforting target, a trend that will likely continue to close out the season. Since returning from a hamstring injury in Week 12, the 34-year-old has racked up 30 catches for 352 yards and two touchdowns over five games. Thielen should remain a mid-range WR3/FLEX player in Week 17 with a questionable Tampa Bay secondary on the slate.

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young played complementary, mistake-free football on Sunday, eliminating any mathematical chance the Arizona Cardinals had of earning a playoff spot in Sunday's 36-30 OT win. Young completed 65% of his pass attempts for 158 yards and two touchdowns, adding 68 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown. It was the second-year quarterback's best fantasy performance of the season, delivering in a crucial spot for the few who trusted him in their semifinal matchup. Since regaining the offensive reins after an early-season benching, Young has put some impressive film on tape and potentially earned himself another year as Carolina's starting quarterback. He'll start at Tampa Bay next week and then at Atlanta for the season finale, with a chance to climb out of the division's basement.

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard tallied 152 yards and two scores on 25 attempts in the Week 16 overtime win over the Arizona Cardinals. Hubbard caught four of his five targets for 13 yards. With quarterback Bryce Young only attempting 26 passes, the Panthers leaned on their RB1 to deliver the victory. Hubbard punched in his first score of the afternoon in the opening quarter on a four-yard run. The 25-year-old would then tally his second score on a game-winning 21-yard run in overtime. This was a nice bounce-back outing for Hubbard, as he tallied just 32 rushing yards last weekend. Over his previous seven contests, Hubbard has found the end zone seven times and tallied at least 70 rushing yards in all but two games. Hubbard remains a solid RB2 heading into a Week 17 tilt against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who have allowed the 15th-fewest points to opposing RBs this season.
