James Mitchell Returns to Panthers on One-Year Deal

Wednesday, March 11, 9:28 AM

The Carolina Panthers re-signed tight end James Mitchell to an undisclosed one-year deal on Wednesday, a league source told Joseph Person of The Athletic. Mitchell was a restricted free agent. Mitchell will return to Carolina for a second season in 2026 after catching all three of his targets for 28 yards in just five games played a year ago. The 26-year-old was drafted in the fifth round (177th overall) by the Detroit Lions in 2022 out of Virginia Tech. In his first three years in the league in Detroit, Mitchell had 13 receptions on 13 targets for 141 yards and one touchdown in 29 games played (one start). He is not anywhere close to fantasy relevance in Carolina and will serve in a depth role at TE once again behind the likes of Ja'Tavion Sanders, Tommy Tremble, and Mitchell Evans.

Max Klare News

Max Klare Plays Large Role in Rams Passing Attack in Preseason Opener

Saturday, August 15, 7:10 PM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Max Klare caught seven of his eight targets for 37 yards during Saturday's preseason contest against the Kansas City Chiefs. Klare, a second-round pick, made a huge impression during his NFL preseason debut. He fetched targets from both Stetson Bennett and Ty Simpson, and while he showed a decent rapport with both, he definitely clicked more with Simpson, the Rams' first-round pick out of Alabama. Klare and Simpson will be a duo to watch for several years to come, but it could take a little while for them to emerge as weekly fantasy threats. Simpson is waiting in the wings behind Matthew Stafford at quarterback, and Klare is a bit buried on the tight end depth chart behind Colby Parkinson, Tyler Higbee, and Terrance Ferguson. Nevertheless, there's long-term appeal here, as the Ohio State product ranks as the TE23 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings.
