Who Should I Start? Brycen Tremayne or Xavier Weaver

The Carolina Panthers are "bullish" on wide receiver Brycen Tremayne, according to Joseph Person of The Athletic. Tremayne went undrafted out of Stanford in 2023 and appeared in two games for the Washington Commanders in 2024, but he was able to crack Carolina's 53-man roster out of training camp. The Panthers traded veteran wide receiver Adam Thielen to the Minnesota Vikings on Wednesday, so Tremayne could now be one of the players Carolina calls upon to replace Thielen's production. The 25-year-old will open the season behind Tetairoa McMillan, Jalen Coker, and Xavier Legette in the team's wide receiver pecking order, leaving him to battle with David Moore and Jimmy Horn Jr. for the WR4 role in Carolina.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Xavier Weaver (hamstring) is expected to be inactive for Sunday's home matchup with their division-rival Los Angeles Rams. The second-year pro was a midweek addition to Arizona's practice report, with his status declining from a limited session on Thursday to a DNP on Friday. Now, labeled questionable, Weaver doesn't appear to be in line to suit up against the visiting Rams. With the news, Arizona's WR corps is alarmingly depleted, considering teammates Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) and Greg Dortch (chest) have already been ruled out for the contest. As it stands, Michael Wilson, Trent Sherfield Sr., Andre Baccellia, and Jalen Brooks are the only active wideouts without a designation heading into this weekend's bout.
