- Emerging Panthers WR may have sustained setback
A summer standout for the Carolina Panthers may have sustained a setback.
Second-year receiver Ja'seem Reed did not participate in Monday's outing of training camp. Head coach Dave Canales was asked about Reed's status following practice.

"Ja'seem's got a sore calf. We're gonna image that today, see what that is," Canales replied. "Came out of the game okay, but then things start to present themselves a little bit in the days after. So, we're gonna check that out."
That game, Carolina's second of the preseason, saw Reed hit the end zone. The 23-year-old accounted for the Panthers' first touchdown in their 29-14 loss to the Buffalo Bills —bringing up his totals in exhibition play up to five receptions, 47 yards and two scores.
Reed, who spent all of the 2025 campaign on the practice squad, could be trending towards capturing a spot on the initial 53-man roster. General manager Dan Morgan gave Reed a bit of an endorsement during the broadcast of Saturday's game, saying he's " helped himself a lot " throughout camp.
