Panthers' Ja'Tavion Sanders: Snags TD in Week 16 win
Sanders caught both of his targets for nine yards and one touchdown in Carolina's 23-20 win over Tampa Bay on Sunday.
Sanders' six-yard touchdown in the third quarter gave the Panthers a 20-17 lead. The tight end has produced fewer than 20 receiving yards in eight of his 12 appearances this season and offers little fantasy value headed into next Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Panthers' Ja'Tavion Sanders: Logs five yards in Week 15
Sanders caught both of his targets for five yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Saints.
The 22-year-old has struggled to contribute over the Panthers' last three games, catching all three of his targets for 11 yards during that span. However, Sanders logged 29 offensive snaps Sunday, slightly more than both Tommy Tremble (28) and Mitchell Evans (25). Even if Sanders remains Carolina's top pass-catching tight end, he'll likely carry limited fantasy value in the Week 16 matchup against the Buccaneers due to the team's ongoing offensive consistency issues .

Panthers' Ja'Tavion Sanders: Blanks in Week 13
Sanders was not targeted during Sunday's 31-28 win over the Rams.
The second-year pro from Texas has served as Carolina's top receiving tight end throughout the season, catching 25 of 30 targets for 176 yards across 10 appearances. However, he's been targeted just once over the Panthers' last two games, indicating that his role may be shrinking as the season progresses. Carolina is on bye in Week 14, but Sanders will likely carry minimal fantasy value in the Week 15 matchup against the Saints.

Panthers' Ja'Tavion Sanders: Just one target in loss
Sanders caught his lone target for six yards in Monday night's 20-9 loss to the 49ers.
Although he was targeted just once, Sanders was the only Panthers' tight end to contribute in the receiving game Monday night. He's now caught 25 of 30 targets for 176 yards through just nine contests this season. Expect the Texas product to remain Carolina's No. 1 option at TE but carry minimal fantasy value in the Week 13 matchup against the Rams.

Panthers' Ja'Tavion Sanders: Another solid outing Sunday
Sanders caught all four of his targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 30-27 overtime win over the Falcons.
The second-year pro from Texas (37 snaps) logged fewer offensive snaps than Tommy Tremble (42 snaps) but still paced the Panthers' tight-end room in targets and receptions. Sanders has caught all nine of his targets for 54 yards over Carolina's last two games, establishing himself as the team's top receiving option at TE. He's expected to remain one of Bryce Young's favorite targets and could be a viable streaming option in the Week 12 matchup against the 49ers.

Panthers' Ja'Tavion Sanders: Five receptions against Saints
Sanders caught all five of his targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 17-7 loss to New Orleans.
It was the second-highest reception total of the season for the second-year tight end, after a 7-54-0 line in Week 2. Sanders is still looking for his first touchdown of 2025, and Carolina's limited passing attack might not give him many opportunities to end that drought. Sanders will take a 20-148-0 line on 25 targets through seven games into a Week 11 clash with the Falcons.

Panthers' Ja'Tavion Sanders: Just one catch vs. Green Bay
Sanders caught his lone target for five yards during Sunday's 16-13 win over the Packers.
The second-year tight end from Texas has struggled to settle in since returning from injury in the Week 7 win over the Jets, posting just four catches for 24 yards across 87 offensive snaps. Even so, he's expected to remain the Panthers' top pass-catching tight end heading into the Week 10 matchup against the Saints.

Panthers' Ja'Tavion Sanders: Minimal output in loss
Sanders caught all three of his targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 40-9 loss to the Bills.
Since returning from an ankle injury in the Panthers' Week 7 win over the Jets, Sanders has caught just three of five targets for 19 yards. However, he still operated as the team's top tight end in Week 8, logging 31 offensive snaps to Tommy Tremble's 28. Sanders played a significant role on Carolina's offense before sustaining an injury, catching 11 of 14 targets for 82 yards over the team's first three games. He's expected to be more involved in the passing game during the Week 9 matchup against the Packers, especially if Bryce Young (ankle) returns to action.

Panthers' Ja'Tavion Sanders: Blanks in return
Sanders was targeted twice but didn't record a catch in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Jets.
Sanders returned to in-game action Sunday after missing the Panthers' last three contests due to an ankle injury. However, he wasn't heavily involved in the team's offensive game plan, drawing just two targets. The second-year pro has now caught 11 of 16 targets for 92 yards through four games this season. Although Sanders is expected to continue operating as the Panthers' top tight end in the Week 8 matchup against the Bills, he unlikely to carry much fantasy value, especially if Bryce Young (ankle) is sidelined.
