Panthers' Jesper Horsted: Signs with Carolina
The Panthers agreed to terms with Horsted on Monday, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
Horsted is joining a Panthers tight end room that's currently depleted, as both Ian Thomas (calf) and Tommy Tremble (hamstring) are dealing with injuries. Horsted, a Princeton product, is likely an extra camp body to take some load off the recovering Thomas and Tremble, but if he impresses throughout the preseason, he could earn a depth spot on Carolina's 53-man roster.

Jesper Horsted: Cut loose by Saints
Horsted was released by the Saints on Saturday, John Hendrix of SI.com reprts.
Horsted inked a deal with New Orleans during OTAs, but he was ultimately unable to show enough to secure a longer stint. His 2023 campaign ended with him on the Raiders' injured reserve due to a hamstring injury. He has seemingly moved on from the injury and will now look for a new landing spot.

Saints' Jesper Horsted: Secures deal with Saints
New Orleans signed Horsted to a contract Friday.
Horsted finished last season on the Raiders' injured reserve list due to a hamstring issue, but he's presumably now healthy. The tight end was limited mostly to special-teams work with Las Vegas in 2023, logging eight offensive snaps and catching his only target for four yards while recording 216 special-teams snaps. Horsted's signing will help fill the void left by Juwan Johnson's foot injury. Johnson is set for surgery but could still be ready for the start of the regular season.

Raiders' Jesper Horsted: Chance to play Week 16
Horsted (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Monday's game against the Chiefs.
Horsted was a late addition to the Raiders' injury report, as he was held to limited participation in Saturday's practice with a hamstring issue. If the 26-year-old is unable to suit up in Week 16, Austin Hooper would stand as Las Vegas' lone active tight end, barring any signings or practice squad elevations, as Michael Mayer (toe) has been ruled out.

Raiders' Jesper Horsted: Not on injury report
Horsted (concussion) is not on the Raiders' injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Patriots.
Horsted is coming off a two-game absence due to a concussion sustained in Week 12. His full participation at Wednesday's practice indicates he has cleared the league's protocols. Look for him to take on his usual role backing up Foster Moreau at tight end assuming he avoids any setbacks.

Raiders' Jesper Horsted: Out again Thursday
Horsted (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Rams, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Horsted sustained a concussion during the Raiders' Week 12 matchup in Seattle, and the 25-year-old will ultimately miss his second consecutive contest because of it. Horsted has mainly operated as a special-teams contributor thus far in 2022, so his absence shouldn't greatly alter Las Vegas' game plan Thursday against the Rams.

Raiders' Jesper Horsted: Still dealing with injury
Horsted (concussion) was listed as a DNP on Monday's estimated practice report, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Horsted appears to still be in protocols after suffering a concussion Week 12 against the Seahawks. With the Raiders on a short week following Sunday's win over the Chargers, which Horsted missed, he may have a difficult time gaining clearance and playing Thursday against the Rams.
