Panthers announce 3 roster moves ahead of training camp
The Carolina Panthers will begin training camp without a few key names.
As announced on Monday afternoon, the team has placed two players on the active/physically unable to perform list—including starting tight end Tommy Tremble. The 25-year-old, who is entering his fifth NFL campaign, underwent back surgery in May and is expected to start his rehabilitation work during camp.
Tremble returned to the Panthers on a two-year deal this offseason. He recorded career-highs in receptions (32), receiving yards (234), yards per reception (10.2) and first downs (12) in 2024.
Joining Tremble is wide receiver Dan Chisena, whose injury was not disclosed in the team's announcement. Chisena appeared in six games for the Panthers this past season, with the majority of his snaps coming on special teams.
Carolina also placed punter Sam Martin on the active/non-football injury list. According to Joe Person of The Athletic, Martin is dealing with a hamstring injury and is not expected to be sidelined for long.
Tremble, Chisena and Martin can be activated at any time during camp.
Update (4:45 p.m. ET): Per Alex Zietlow of The Charlotte Observer, Chisena has a calf injury and is not expected to miss much time.

On my sports bucket list: The Lions winning the Super Bowl, the Guardians capturing the World Series, and more
Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Here are a few items on my Sports Bucket List by sport: Advertisement Football ▪ A 2,000-yard receiver in the NFL — This feels inevitable with the proliferation of passing, the tilting of the rules to favor offense, and the expansion of the regular season to 17 games. The record for the most receiving yards in a season belongs to Hall of Famer Calvin Johnson of the Detroit Lions with 1,964 in a 16-game campaign in 2012. Cooper Kupp put up 1,947 yards for the Los Angeles Rams in a 17-game season in 2021. Ja'Marr Chase or Justin Jefferson, former teammates in college at Louisiana State University, appear destined to make this mark a reality. Advertisement ▪ The Detroit Lions playing in a Super Bowl — It felt like last year was going to be the year. Dan Campbell's crew went 15-2 to earn home-field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs. But in quintessential Lions fashion, they were upset in the Divisional Round by rookie sensation Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders. Every other NFL team still in existence from the inaugural NFL season of the Lions in 1930 — then known as the Portsmouth Spartans — has reached a Super Bowl. The Lions haven't played for an NFL championship since Dwight D. Eisenhower was roaming the White House. Baseball ▪ The Cleveland Guardians winning a World Series — With an emphasis on launch angle, exit velocity, and lift that makes it sound like we're discussing aerospace engineering, not hitting, you can forget about another .400 hitter joining Teddy Ballgame. Just as chimerical a figure is the 30-game-winning pitcher. That's an impossibility with the devaluing of starters and the current conventional wisdom that it's akin to putting an open flame near a can of gasoline to let most starters face a lineup a third or fourth time. Denny McLain (31-6 in 1968 with 28 complete games) is in no danger. So, the Guardians (nee Indians) winning a World Series is the most realistic of my baseball desires. By any sobriquet, Cleveland, which lost in the American League Championship Series last season, boasts the longest championship drought in major North American team sports, having last won a World Series in 1948, defeating the Boston Braves. This doesn't look like the year. Baseball Reference gives the Guardians just a 0.1 percent chance of winning the World Series. Advertisement Cleveland came tantalizingly close to winning a World Series in 2016 but lost to the Cubs in Game 7. Getty Images North America Basketball ▪ An undefeated season in Division 1 men's college basketball — I was tempted to say the return of the mid-range game for the Celtics. But I wanted to be more realistic. The Spirit of 1976 also commemorates the last time a Division 1 men's college basketball team went undefeated, as Bobby Knight's Indiana Hoosiers played unblemished basketball. The roster instability and fluidity ushered in by the elixir of the transfer portal and name, image, and likeness (NIL) payments, added to the one-and-done trend, raises the degree of difficulty of this achievement to Burj Khalifa heights. Hockey ▪ The Toronto Maple Leafs winning the Stanley Cup — You'll know we're living in a computer simulation if the Leafs cart the Cup around the ice. Another purported front office savior, Brendan Shanahan, failed to scale hockey's hard-luck Mount Everest. He was fired in May, following Toronto squandering a 2-0 series lead in the Eastern Conference finals and losing the series in seven games to Brad Marchand and the repeat Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers. The Leafs last lifted Lord Stanley's cherished chalice in 1967, the final season of the Original Six NHL. The Leafs breaking through would equal the frozen version of the Red Sox and Cubs ending their title droughts/yearly CIA black site-worthy torture of their fanbases. Soccer ▪ The US men's soccer team winning the World Cup — The 2026 World Cup, which America is hosting along with its North American neighbors, could be a Yankee Doodle disappointment. Some progress was made under coach Mauricio Pochettino with the team's recent showing at the Gold Cup, reaching the final before losing to rival Mexico. But it still feels like the US is rushing to turn R&D dreams into a viable product ready for launch next summer. Advertisement The last time the US men hosted the World Cup was 1994. The American Dream was that the next time the US hosted it would be in position to claim it. It would take a Mike Eruzione-esque miracle for the US to win the World Cup. The men lag behind their female counterparts, perennial quadrennial contenders and four-time Women's World Cup winners. Event ▪ The French Open — The British Open, The Masters, Wimbledon, and the Kentucky Derby are all worthy. But I landed on the French Open. There's something romantic and beguiling about the red clay of Roland Garros in Paris, a crimson crucible that both humbles and canonizes players. Clay masters Rafael Nadal (14 men's singles titles) and Chris Evert (seven women's singles titles) carved their legends in that clay. Now, another Spaniard, Carlos Alcaraz, is following in Rafa's ruddy footsteps. Carlos Alcaraz celebrates winning the men's singles title at the 2025 French Open. Adam Pretty/Getty Edifice ▪ The Rose Bowl — No matter how many teams make the College Football Playoff, the Rose Bowl always will resonate as the doyen of the college football postseason because of its iconic eponymous venue and its setting. It's college football's Amalfi Coast and Mecca rolled into one. The oldest operating bowl game, dating to 1916, is merely a CFP quarterfinal this season. But The Granddaddy of Them All bows to no bowl. Pasadena, Calif., on New Year's Day is pure Americana and college football heaven. Advertisement Christopher L. Gasper is a Globe columnist.

If NFL, ESPN deal is done soon, it will have an immediate impact on how fans consume the most popular sport in the US
Per CNBC, the league is expected to take a 10 percent stake in Disney-owned ESPN, while ESPN would have ownership of NFL Network — including its seven live games per season — and Red Zone. Some other NFL Media properties also may be part of the package, though NFL Films is not expected to be one. The benefits for ESPN are obvious and enormous. ESPN is launching a much-anticipated standalone app in the fall, with the hopes it will revive the network's pre-streaming status as 'The Worldwide Leader in Sports.' Having more NFL content will be nothing short of a gold mine for the direct-to-consumer app, which will cost $29.99 per month. And with the NFL holding a stake in ESPN, it essentially makes the network, as Puck's John Ourand put it, 'a forever partner' with the league, and legitimate security when broadcast and streaming rights are up for bid again. Advertisement The benefits for the NFL? The league has been looking for years to find a way to offload or share its in-house media properties, and there's no better partner than ESPN and its parent company, Disney. From a journalistic standpoint, it's fair to wonder whether the NFL believes there is a side benefit to the deal — the possibility of limiting certain critical reporting on the league, which ESPN has done exceptionally well. Advertisement How this partnership would fully affect you and me won't be totally clear until the deal is complete and the parameters are revealed. But the baseline is this: Much of what you currently enjoy watching on the NFL Network — which will still exist in 24/7 form — will be under the purview of ESPN. And you're probably going to have to pony up for one more pricey streaming service if you want to keep watching all of it. This really is fake news One of the many, many, many scourges of social media — particularly the swamplands of Facebook — is AI-generated content. The vast majority of posts about a pop-culture or sports topic or personality is AI-generated at this point. Some of it seems real. All of it is trash. A more recent trend is phony but believable stories about an athlete doing an extremely good deed. The Sports Hub's Scott Zolak got duped by one recently, passing along on his afternoon show that Patriots quarterback Drake Maye and his wife donated all of the gifts from their recent wedding to local homeless shelters and children's charities. It was the kind of story you want to believe, and plausible to some degree. It also wasn't true. It was a lie concocted and spread by a social media content farm. Advertisement Zolak isn't alone. On Thursday, I noticed a longtime prominent NBA media member share a post on the social media platform Threads that Lions quarterback Jared Goff donated — let's get this concoction right — 'his entire $15.9 million bonus and sponsorship earns to a homeless shelter in Detroit to help fund 150 units [of] housing with 300 shelter beds.' That was followed by a fake Goff quote about seeing homelessness firsthand growing up. Listen, if actual media people can't spot a phony story, it's understandable — if disheartening beyond belief — why so much of this sludge is treated as truth by so many. A word of advice: if a story that seems too good to be true (or, on the opposite end, too scandalous), it probably is. Always check to make sure it is something that has been initially reported by a credible journalist. Preferably with a link to an actual story. Please don't tell me that's too much to ask. Boring or a booming British? Reader Pete G. reached out this week to ask whether Scottie Scheffler's systematic dominance on the PGA Tour, combined with a nature that is somewhat less charismatic than Tiger Woods's in his heyday, has led to a decrease in viewership in the anti-climactic final rounds. 'Watching the 4th round [of the British Open] was so boring and uninteresting,' he wrote. 'He is annoyingly steady and he never ( gives up a lead when he is in the driver's seat.' All true. But golf viewers seem to be digging it, at least according to the viewership numbers from Sunday's final round on NBC. Nielsen reported 4.1 million viewers for the fourth round, which was up 21 percent from the final round of Xander Schauffele's victory a year ago. Even without much suspense — Scheffler finished at 17 under par to win by four strokes — golf fans stuck around to watch him complete his fourth major victory and second this year. Advertisement McAfee apologizes — five months later Sentient monster truck Pat McAfee apologized Wednesday on his eponymous ESPN show to a female Ole Miss student, a mere five months after carelessly amplifying a false rumor that sent her life into chaos. McAfee being McAfee, he did it in the most self-aggrandizing way possible, including deploying the phrase/shield, 'As a girl dad,'' which is almost always followed by an apology for some behavior that humiliated a woman. 'Girl dads' fear lawsuits too, I'd imagine. "As a Girl Dad, I was very thankful for the opportunity to let Mr. Cornett know that I was wildly regretful for the part that our show played in his daughter, Mary Kate's, pain." - Pat McAfee apologizing for sharing a false rumor about an 18-year-old Ole Miss student on his show. — Awful Announcing (@awfulannouncing) Chad Finn can be reached at
