Carolina Panthers tight ends Tommy Tremble (hip) and Stephen Sullivan (shoulder) are active for Week 14 versus the New Orleans Saints. Both players had been listed as questionable. Neither player is on the fantasy radar this week given their consistently small roles within the struggling Panthers offense. The same goes for Ian Thomas, who is also healthy.

Carolina Panthers tight ends Tommy Tremble (hip) and Stephen Sullivan (shoulder) are both listed as questionable to play on Sunday in the Week 14 game versus the Saints in New Orleans. Hayden Hurst (concussion) will also miss his fourth straight game, so it's possible that Ian Thomas serves as the team's top pass-catching tight end this weekend. Tremble was unable to play in the Week 13 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but if he's given the green light to play on Sunday, he'll be the best bet for fantasy managers desperate for a tight end streamer in the deepest of leagues. In 11 games in 2023, Tremble has only 13 receptions for 84 yards, although he's found the end zone three times. The smart move is to look elsewhere for a fantasy tight end.

Carolina Panthers tight end Stephen Sullivan (shoulder) was limited in the team's practice on Wednesday. Sullivan has been dealing with this shoulder issue for weeks, so it's something that's clearly still bothering him. But the 27-year-old tight end has played in three straight contests. He will have two more chances to upgrade his practice status before the Panthers take on the New Orleans Saints in Week 14. If Hayden Hurst (concussion) misses his fourth straight game this weekend, Sullivan should see a bigger role. However, he doesn't warrant an add in fantasy, even in tight end premium leagues.

Carolina Panthers tight end Stephen Sullivan (shoulder) was a non-participant at Monday's walk-through, per Darin Gantt of the team's official website. Sullivan surprisingly emerged with four catches on five targets for 28 yards before departing Week 9's eventual 27-13 defeat to the Indianapolis Colts due to a shoulder injury. The 26-year-old LSU product looks to be very questionable for Thursday's game versus the Chicago Bears, where Hayden Hurst and Tommy Tremble would likely split snaps for the Panthers if Sullivan can't go. The Bears are giving up the 10th-most half-PPR fantasy points to the position this season, so there would at least some semblance of streaming potential here, considering the matchup.

Carolina Panthers tight end Stephen Sullivan (shoulder) suffered a shoulder injury in the team's 27-13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. The former 2020 seventh-round pick has seen his usage tick up due to the absence of tight end Ian Thomas (calf). Before exiting the game, Sullivan secured four out of his five targets for 28 yards. Entering Sunday's contest, he had just three catches in his career. The Panthers have a short turnaround this week as they travel to Chicago for Thursday Night Football. It's unclear if the shoulder injury will force Sullivan to miss that game. Regardless, the 26-year-old should not be rostered in any fantasy football format.
