Panthers' Feleipe Franks: Won't play Sunday
Franks (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Saints.
Franks was unable to practice all week after sustaining a concussion in the Panthers' Week 8 loss to the Broncos, so it's no surprise he won't suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup. With Franks sidelined in Week 9, Carolina's tight end room will likely consist of Tommy Tremble (back), Ja'Tavion Sanders and Ian Thomas.

Panthers' Feleipe Franks: DNP on Thursday
Franks (concussion) did not participate in Thursday's practice.
Franks was diagnosed with a concussion during the Panthers' Week 8 loss to the Broncos. He has been unable to practice this week, and even if he were to return Friday in a limited capacity, he appears to be a long shot to play against the Saints on Sunday. With Tommy Tremble working through a back injury, Ja'Tavion Sanders and Ian Thomas may be the only healthy tight ends on the active roster ahead of Sunday's game, which could lead to Carolina elevating Stephen Sullivan or Jordan Matthews from the practice squad.

Panthers' Feleipe Franks: Won't return vs. Denver
Franks (concussion) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Broncos, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
Franks will remain in the league's concussion protocols, and he'll need to gain clearance before returning to regular-season action. His practice participation leading up to the Panthers' Week 9 game against New Orleans on Sunday, Nov. 3 will be worth monitoring.

Panthers' Feleipe Franks: Exits with head injury
Franks (head) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Denver, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports.
Franks is being evaluated for a concussion after getting hit in the head while on punt coverage. He's been one of the Panthers' best special-teams players this season, but in order to return, he will need to pass the league's concussion protocols.

Panthers' Feleipe Franks: Signed off practice squad
The Panthers signed Franks to the 53-man roster from the practice squad Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
Franks only played one offensive snap during Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Chargers due to starting tight end Tommy Tremble ultimately being active. With Ian Thomas (calf) on IR until early October at the earliest, and Jordan Matthews being released, Franks will get a chance to continue holding down a depth role for Carolina.

Feleipe Franks: Going back to practice squad
Franks reverted to Carolina's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Franks played just one offensive snap during Sunday's 26-3 loss versus the Chargers. With Tommy Tremble presumably close to being back to full strength, it's hard to imagine Franks earning a significant share of the Panthers' tight-end snaps any time soon.

Panthers' Feleipe Franks: Elevated to face Chargers
The Panthers elevated Franks from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, ahead of Sunday's matchup against Los Angeles.
Franks was cut by Carolina on Monday before being re-signed to the practice squad, and he'll now suit up for the team Week 2. With Tommy Tremble (hamstring) listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers, the Panthers were in need of additional depth at the tight end position.

Franks was signed to the team's active roster from their practice squad Saturday ahead of their season-opening loss to the Saints, before being waived Monday. The 26-year-old could find himself back on the active roster again for a Week 2 matchup with the Chargers if Tommy Tremble (hamstring) is still not ready to return.

The Panthers waived Franks on Monday, Darin Gant of the team's official site reports.
Franks was added to Carolina's active roster Saturday to ensure depth at tight end with both Ian Thomas (calf) and Tommy Tremble (hamstring) missing Week 1, but he has now been let go. The Arkansas product played 17 special-teams snaps and recovered a muffed punt late in Sunday's contest.

Franks was added to Carolina's practice squad after making the initial 53-man roster at the conclusion of training camp.

Feleipe Franks: Added to Panthers' taxi squad
Carolina signed Franks to the practice squad Thursday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Franks spent all of 2023 on the Falcons' injured reserve due to an undisclosed injury designation. He signed with the Panthers in late July to compete for a depth tight-end spot on the 53-man roster, but he ultimately came up short after finishing the preseason with three catches (on four targets) for 12 yards. Both Tommy Tremble (hamstring) and Ian Thomas (calf) are dealing with injuries ahead of Week 1, and if either of them cannot suit up, Franks is a prime candidate to get elevated to the active roster.

Panthers' Feleipe Franks: Signed by Carolina
The Panthers signed Franks on Friday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
Franks had a tryout with Carolina on Monday, and he impressed the organization enough to get a contract. The 26-year-old spent the previous three seasons with Atlanta, though he was on injured reserve all of last year due to an undisclosed issue. Franks is presumably now healthy, and he'll look to make a positive impression in training camp with the aim of competing for a roster spot.

Feleipe Franks: Gets tryout with Carolina
The Panthers hosted Franks (undisclosed) for a tryout Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Franks spent the entire 2023 season on injured reserve with Atlanta due to an undisclosed issue, but he now appears healthy. The tight end and former quarterback could assist in shoring up Carolina's depth behind Tommy Tremble, Ja'Tavion Sanders and Ian Thomas.

Franks (undisclosed) reverted to the Falcons' injured reserve Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Feleipe Franks: Gets cut loose
Franks (undisclosed) was waived by Atlanta with an injury designation Thursday.
Franks appeared in 11 games for the Falcons last season and was working to earn a depth role in the team's tight-end corps during training camp. Assuming he is able to clear waivers, he'll revert to injured reserve and be forced to miss the 2023 campaign unless he reaches an injury settlement with the team.

Falcons' Feleipe Franks: Draws two targets in 2022
Franks didn't haul in either of his two targets across 11 appearances during the 2022 campaign.
Franks began working as a tight end last offseason and was reportedly impressive during training camp at his new position. However, he ultimately failed to carve out a solid role, even with Kyle Pitts (knee) sidelined to end the year. Franks saw more than five offensive snaps on one occasion this season (Week 5 against Tampa Bay) and failed to haul in either of his targets across 27 snaps during that contest. He's under contract for one more year, and a full offseason will presumably be beneficial for his development at tight end, though he likely has a long way to go before earning a consistent offensive role.

Falcons' Feleipe Franks: Ready to go for season finale
Franks (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's contest against the Buccaneers, Scott Bair of the Falcons' official website reports.
Franks will return to the field after a one-game absence while recovering from a concussion he suffered in Week 16 versus the Ravens. The 25-year-old has operated as a depth option at both quarterback and tight end this season while playing the majority of his snaps on special teams.
