There is really no threat of Tremayne not clearing waivers. That's what I meant.

Maybe. He was pretty good in college before a bad injury.

He had a good preseason last year as a UDFA in Washington and was on their practice squad all year so they obviously saw something worth developing.

He signed a futures deal with the Panthers earlier this year, and everything about him has been increasingly positive.

Tremayne has gotten a decent amount of time with the ones, and a lot with the twos for someone that doesn't have a chance.

He's the only other 6'4" plus WR on the team, plays ST, and is a more natural backup to the X receiver position than David Moore.

That was my thinking behind it. But he may well end up as one of the last roster cuts.

If so, I do hope they can bring him back to the PS.

But I personally think there's a good chance he could be claimed given his ST ability and what hes shown at WR.

not sure how Tremble is going to be ready for week 1 per Canales

had back surgery in May and hasn't had any practice/live contact all preseason, but will be ready for week 1?

By all indications, the surgery was "minor." I know with all surgeries and especially back surgery there can be complications, but I think the whole time Tremble did this with the expectation he would be able to be back for Week 1

It sounds like he will be ready to start back in team drills next week.

He's a veteran who knows the system so I'm sure that helps.

I still can't imagine he will play a normal workload early on though

I can see 5-6 from other teams on the 53

A lot can change over the next week, but here is my best 53-man roster (note: I'm just basing this on guys on the 90 man roster currently). Obviously there could be trades/ waiver claims/ FA signings.

 

Offense (25)

QB (2): Bryce Young, Andy Dalton

RB (3): Chuba Hubbard, Rico Dowdle, Trevor Etienne

TE (4): Tommy Tremble, JT Sanders, Mitchell Evans, James Mitchell

WR (7): Tetoria McMillan, Xavier Legette, Adam Theilen, Jalen Coker, Hunter Renfrow, Jimmy Horn, Brycen Tremayne 

OL (9): Ikem Ekwonu, Damien Lewis, Austin Corbett, Robert Hunt, Taylor Moton, Cade Mays, Chandler Zavala, Brady Christensen, Yosh Nijman 

 

Defense (25)

DL (6): Derrick Brown, Bobby Brown, Ashawn Robinson, Tershawn Wharton, Sam Roberts, Cam Jackson

OLB (5): DJ Wonnum, Pat Jones, Nic Scourton, Princely Umanmielen, Thomas Incoom 

ILB (5): Trevin Wallace, Christian Rozeboom, Krys Barnes, Jon Rattigen, Claudin Cherelus

S (4): Trevon Moehrig, Demani Richardson, Lathan Ransom, Nick Scott 

CB (5): Jaycee Horn, Mike Jackson, Chau Smith-Wade, Corey Thornton, Shemar Bartholomew 

 

ST (3):

LS: JJ Jansen 

P: Sam Martin 

K: Matthew Wright 

 

Would like to hear everyone's thoughts

Would love for Crumedy to make the roster but Roberts has played pretty well.

I'd be hype to keep James Mitchell.

I know it’s not popular. But I don’t think Jimmy Horn makes it. Was reading on Twitter earlier about how his reps in practice and games have dropped off significantly. Tremayne will be the bubble guy. 
 

I literally agree with everything else. 

I think he was drafted primarily as a return man and then we were going to look to develop him as a WR but he didn't impress as a returner and probably just isn't far enough along as a WR to make it. We'll hope to stash him on the PS and if someone picks him up, oh well. That's just the way it goes with 6th rounders sometimes.

In a lot of systems, WR must be able to block in the run game.

He’s too small for that.

cutting Tremble saves us 4.5 mill.  CFutting Mitchell only saves 1 mill.  Depends on how much we value Tremble's blocking ability.  Maybe Mitchell can block, I don't know anything about him

We knew his size when we drafted him.

I'd like to see a drive long enough Thursday night that at least one kicker gets to attempt a field goal to help give some idea as to which one deserves the job -- even if it's a 56-yarder to cut the lead to 40.

He's best suited for city council.

Would like to hear everyone's thoughts

- They like OG Jarrett Kingston, I think he's kept as our 10th o-lineman. He's graded out very well on the first 2 preseason games and played C vs Texans 

- We keep 6 WR, Hunter Renfrow gets cut 

- Jaden Crumedy has been very strong vs the run, we keep him over Cam Jackson

Spotrac says that Tremble's cap hit for 2025 is $3.85M with a dead cap of $6M. Next season though, he'll have a $6.5M cap hit but the dead cap number would only be $2.16M.

Mitchell Evans hasn't looked good while James Mitchell has looked better (imo). Tremble is still the best guy in that room until JT0 becomes more consistent.

How do you keep 6 while cutting Renfrow. 

Renfrow is the best PR and best pure slot guy on this team right now.  

No way a well run team keeps Moore and Horn both over him….then again, we are a poorly run team

I would say that would be a mild surprise if he doesn't.
