Panthers TE Chris Manhertz (Jones fracture) will begin training camp on the active/PUP list.

Manhertz has a broken left foot. He was injured in June's minicamp. The Panthers are "hopeful" Manhertz will be ready for Week 1, which isn't the same thing as saying he will be ready for Week 1. Manhertz has been slated for No. 2/blocking duties with Ed Dickson departed for Seattle.

Carolina Panthers backup tight end Chris Manhertz will begin training camp on the physically unable to perform list with the same injury that sidelined starting tight end Greg Olsen for much of the 2017 season.

Manhertz underwent surgery this summer after sustaining a Jones fracture in his left foot, general manager Marty Hurney said Tuesday. The Panthers are hopeful Manhertz, who was injured during minicamp last month, will be ready to return before the start of the regular season.

Manhertz, 26, played in all 16 regular-season games in 2017 as a blocking tight end behind Olsen and Ed Dickson, who signed with Seattle during the offseason. Olsen was limited to a career-low seven games last season after breaking his right foot during a Week 2 victory over Buffalo.

I'm sure we can do better.

Well, the good news is, this forces our often conservative coaches to fast track Ian Thomas.

I saw a tweet from Jourdan Rodrigue that confirms Thomas was up in Baltimore with Cam and the receivers.  Great to hear that. At this point Thomas needs all the reps possible.

I'm guessing that while the hope is to slot Thomas in at TE2, we'll probably have to bring in another TE for depth.

Any possibilities?

      NFL top 10 Defenses

      By jfra78 · Posted

      Did not expect this from national media. https://www.foxsports.com/stories/nfl/10-best-nfl-defenses-2026-texans-seahawks-broncos 10. Carolina Panthers   Key additions: OLB Jaelan Phillips (FA), LB Devin Lloyd (FA), DT Lee Hunter (draft) Key losses: DT A’Shawn Robinson (FA) Don’t be surprised to see the Panthers, who ranked 15th in points allowed and 16th in yards given up last season, make the leap into the top-10 conversation in 2026.  They added two of the marquee defensive free agents in edge rusher Jaelan Phillips and linebacker Devin Lloyd. Cornerback Jaycee Horn is coming off back-to-back Pro Bowl seasons. Carolina lost starting defensive tackle A’Shawn Robinson in free agency but essentially replaced him with second-round pick Lee Hunter, who had 10.5 tackles for loss at Texas Tech last season.  Ejiro Evero, one of the NFL’s most respected defensive coordinators, has plenty of talent to work with.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      unless you have a bonafide superstar at Qb you bring in competition every year until you do & or at the very least you want a legitimate plan B in case of an injury .the problem in Carolina is they know Bryce ayoung most likely could not actually win a real legitimate NFL Qb competition right now & if & when he did not win that aforesaid Qb competition it would not only be a major distraction but a setback to his overall development.& moreover once the fans realized they had a much better Qb on the roster it would be alot of public pressure to start the better Qb  ...just saying
