Veteran wide receiver/tight end Jordan Matthews signed with the Carolina Panthers as a member of the practice squad on Wednesday. The 31-year-old last played for the Philadelphia Eagles in 2019, catching four passes for 33 yards in two games. Matthews once posted a 997-yard season, but that was in 2015. In 2023, there's little to no chance he becomes fantasy-relevant, and it's probably a long shot for him to even join the active roster this season. The Vanderbilt alum can be ignored for fantasy football until further notice.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Russell Gage (knee) is now a free agent. When the team reworked his deal last year, it included an option for the 2024 season, and the team has declined to pick it up. The move clears what would have been $10 million in salary, but the Bucs will take on roughly $6.9 million in dead money from old restructures. Gage signed a three-year, $30 million in free agency before the 2022 season to give quarterback Tom Brady another weapon in the passing game. He did have a career-high five touchdowns in 2022, but he also had a disappointing 51 catches for 426 yards and didn't play at all last year due to a torn patellar tendon that he suffered in training camp in August. The 28-year-old should resurface with another team, but coming off a major knee injury, it's unlikely that he'll be able to make much of a fantasy impact wherever he lands.
