Former Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver
Hunter Renfrow signed an undisclosed deal with the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. After a year away from the NFL, the ex-Pro Bowler and Clemson star will link up with his hometown team after the NFL draft. In his last season in the league in 2023, the former fifth-round pick (149th overall) caught a career-low 25 passes on 37 targets for 255 yards and no touchdowns in 17 games (three starts) with the Raiders. Renfrow made his one and only Pro Bowl in 2021, when he set career-highs in catches (103), targets (128), receiving yards (1,038) and touchdowns (nine) in 17 games (nine starts). The 29-year-old pass-catcher will give the Panthers another veteran wideout alongside
Adam Thielen, but if Carolina's receiving corps stays healthy, he'll likely be the WR4, at best, behind Thielen,
Xavier Legette and rookie
Tetairoa McMillan.

In addition to visiting with his former team, the Las Vegas Raiders, free-agent wide receiver
Hunter Renfrow took a visit with the Carolina Panthers on Wednesday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Renfrow has 269 catches for 2,884 yards and 17 touchdowns in his five NFL seasons with the Raiders but did not play at all in 2024 after Vegas released him last March. The 29-year-old pass-catcher was a first-time Pro Bowler back in 2021, when he had 103 receptions for 1,038 yards and nine touchdowns in 17 games (nine starts). If Renfrow were to land in Carolina, he'd provide the Panthers with an experienced veteran that would serve in a depth role behind the likes of
Xavier Legette,
Adam Thielen,
Jalen Coker and
David Moore.

Free-agent wide receiver
Hunter Renfrow is reportedly visiting with the Las Vegas Raiders on Friday. Renfrow also visited with the Carolina Panthers earlier in the week as the 29-year-old is attempting a comeback. Renfrow last played with the Raiders in 2023, but he put up career-lows during that season. Renfrow has seen his stats take a dramatic dip since his 100-catch season in 2021. The veteran wideout has proven to be a reliable slot receiver during his career. He could be an interesting option for the Raiders who need depth at the position.

Free-agent wide receiver
Hunter Renfrow has been unsigned all season following his final year with the Las Vegas Raiders, which saw him catch 25 passes for 255 yards and no touchdowns in 2023. The former Clemson wideout posted 1,038 receiving yards in 2021 but battled through injuries in 2022 and never returned to form. Renfrow's name came up as a potential target for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after the team lost
Chris Godwin (ankle) to a serious ankle injury. However, Bucs insider Greg Auman checked on the situation and said he'd classify Renfrow as "retired" rather than "unsigned." Renfrow has not formally announced his retirement, but it could explain why he has not joined an organization in any capacity this season. If Renfrow has played his last snap in the NFL, he will finish with a total of 269 catches for 2,884 yards and 17 touchdowns across 73 career games.
