Fantasy Impact:

Coker was tendered by Carolina in early March and made his return to the team official on Monday. The wideout, who will enter his third NFL season in 2026, caught 33 passes for 394 and three touchdowns in 11 games last season - very similar to the 32-478-2 line he posted as a rookie in 2024, also in 11 games. However, in last year's Wild Card round loss to the Rams, Coker hauled in nine passes for 134 yards and a score, which could signal another step forward in 2026 as he and quarterback Bryce Young continue to grow and get on the same page together.
