Fantasy Impact
Franks suffered the injury on a play during special teams. He was evaluated for a concussion on the sideline.
Feleipe Franks has been signed to the Panthers' active roster ahead of Week 1's matchup versus the Saints.
Fantasy Impact
Tight ends Tommy Tremble and Ian Thomas were ruled out for Week 1, so Franks was brought up to provide some tight end depth behind rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders, Jordan Matthews, and Messiah Swinson. Franks likely won't be fantasy-relevant in a matchup in which he is fourth on the depth chart.
The Panthers signed QB Feleipe Franks to their practice squad.
Fantasy Impact

Former QB, now TE Feleipe Franks is being waived by the Carolina Panthers but is considered a practice squad candidate should he clear waivers.
Fantasy Impact
Franks got his start at TE in 2023 with the Atlanta Falcons, though he did not appear in any games after being dressed out for 20 (as a backup QB) between 2021-22. He did not crack Carolina's starting TE rotation, but he will have a chance to stay in the team's system behind a thin unit.
