Who Should I Start? Hunter Renfrow or Jermaine Burton

Monday, August 11, 10:15 AM

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Hunter Renfrow (hamstring) was back at practice on Monday, according to Joe Person of The Athletic. The oft-injured receiver is attempting a return to the NFL after missing the entire 2024 season due to ulcerative colitis, which he said caused him to drop down to as low as 150 pounds. A former 1,000-yard receiver with the Raiders, Renfrow's health has kept him from reaching similar heights since. He's competing for a depth role on a Panthers team that rosters Adam Thielen and spent first-round picks on Tetairoa McMillan and Xavier Legette in back-to-back drafts.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Jermaine Burton (undisclosed) is back in uniform and at training camp practice on Friday, according to Charlie Clifford of NBC 5 Cincinnati. Burton apparently suffered an undisclosed injury in the preseason opener last week against the Philadelphia Eagles after he caught one pass and had a couple punt and kickoff returns on special teams. It remains to be seen if the 24-year-old will suit up for the second preseason contest on Monday night against the Washington Commanders. For fantasy purposes, the third-round pick last year is off the radar in most leagues. In his rookie campaign last year, Burton caught four of 14 targets for 107 yards and no touchdowns in 14 games (one start). Right now, he's the team's WR4, at best, behind Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins and Andrei Iosivas.
