News

  • Placed on injured list

    The Panthers placed Sullivan (knee) on the practice-squad injured list Tuesday.

    Analysis: Sullivan was injured in Sunday's loss to the Bucs and won't be eligible to play again until Week 18. Sullivan played eight offensive snaps and another nine on special teams against Tampa Bay, his lone regular-season appearance of 2024.

  • Lands back on practice squad

    Sullivan (knee) reverted to Carolina's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Analysis: Sullivan got his first elevation of the season Sunday against Tampa Bay and played eight offensive snaps along with nine special-teams snaps. He didn't catch his only target and suffered a knee injury in the second half, causing him to miss the rest of the contest after initially being deemed doubtful to return. The injury could be an obstacle to Sullivan being elevated again Week 14, as could the potential return of the Panthers' top tight end, Ja'Tavion Sanders (neck).

  • Unlikely to return Sunday

    Sullivan (knee) is doubtful to return to Sunday's contest against the Buccaneers, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan went to the locker room after suffering a knee injury in the second half versus Tampa Bay and his day is likely done as a result. The tight end failed to reel in his only target of the game in the third quarter.

  • Elevated from practice squad

    Carolina elevated Sullivan from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan was cut from the Panthers' practice squad Oct. 10, but he was signed back Oct. 29 and will be available to make his 2024 regular-season debut against the Buccaneers on Sunday. With Ja'Tavion Sanders (neck) ruled out, Sullivan will serve as the Panthers' No. 3 tight end behind Tommy Tremble and Feleipe Franks.

  • Back with Carolina

    The Panthers signed Sullivan to the practice squad Tuesday, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan was cut from the Panthers' practice squad Oct. 10, but he is back with the team less than three weeks later. He has yet to be elevated to the active roster this season, though he could be for the Panthers' Week 9 contest against the Saints on Sunday if No. 4 tight end Feleipe Franks cannot clear the league's concussion protocols before that game.

  • Gets let go

    Sullivan was cut from the Panthers' practice squad Thursday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan joined Carolina's practice squad Sept. 30 but never received an elevation to the active roster. The 27-year-old will now have to work to find another opportunity, but he could be a candidate to return if Ian Thomas (calf) and Tommy Tremble (concussion) cannot suit up in Week 6 against the Falcons.

  • Back in Carolina

    Sullivan signed with the Panthers' practice squad Monday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan spent the previous three seasons with the team and was with them in training camp until he reached an injury settlement after injuring his quadriceps. Now healthy, the LSU product will provide some extra organizational depth at tight end for the Panthers.

  • Visits the Big Apple

    Sullivan (quadriceps) worked out for the Giants on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan received an injury settlement from the Panthers in early August, making him a free agent. Now healthy, the LSU product is working to find a new opportunity. With the Giants not receiving much production from their tight ends, they may be looking to beef up their depth there, considering they also worked out Teagan Quitoriano and Armani Rogers on Monday as well.

  • Reaches injury settlement

    The Panthers released Sullivan (quadriceps) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan was set to miss all of 2024 after landing on Carolina's injured reserve last Thursday, but the 27-year-old will now have the opportunity to catch on with another team once he's fully healthy. The 2020 seventh-round tight end out of LSU played in 11 regular-season games for the Panthers last season, posting 12 catches on 24 targets for 125 yards.

  • Lands on IR

    Sullivan (quadriceps) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan will have his 2024 campaign come to an early end with his shift to IR sidelining him for the season. However, he could find another opportunity if he reaches an injury settlement with the team and can prove himself healthy. The LSU product appeared in 11 regular-season games for Carolina last season, recording 12 catches on 24 targets for 125 yards. In a corresponding move, the team signed fellow tight end Curtis Hodges.

  • Inks one-year extension

    The Panthers signed Sullivan to a one-year extension Monday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan was placed on the Panthers' IR on Aug. 31 with a hip injury. He returned Oct. 4 and managed to play 11 games. Sullivan split his time between offense and special teams and finished the season with 12 catches on 24 targets for 125 yards. The 2020 seventh-round pick out of LSU will have a chance at making Carolina's 53-man roster for the 2024 season.

  • No catches Sunday

    Sullivan didn't catch either of his two targets in Sunday's 26-0 loss to the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Sullivan's goose egg came after a decent, three-catch outing in Week 16. Despite making the stat sheet in most games during the second half of the season, Sullivan's stock remains restricted heading into Sunday's finale versus the Buccaneers.

    Published: Tue, Jan 2 at 7:46am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Targeted five times in Week 16

    Sullivan caught three of five targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 33-30 loss to the Packers.

    Analysis: Sullivan operated as the Panthers' No. 2 tight end behind Tommy Tremble, playing just 14 of Carolina's 66 offensive snaps. In nine appearances, the 27-year-old tight end has recorded just 12 catches for 125 yards this season. Sullivan should remain far off the fantasy radar in a Week 17 matchup with the Jaguars.

  • Makes one catch

    Sullivan caught his only target for 14 yards in Sunday's 9-7 win over the Falcons.

    Analysis: Sullivan has become more of a factor lately, with all nine of his catches this season coming in the last eight weeks. Although he hasn't topped 28 yards in any contest, he's generally been good for an occasional catch, as was the case Sunday.

    Published: Mon, Dec 18 at 10:36am by Rotowire.com

  • Good for Week 14

    Sullivan (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Saints.

    Analysis: Sullivan was able to practice fully Friday, so it's not a surprise he's suiting up in New Orleans. The 27-year-old has three catches for 49 yards over the past three games with Hayden Hurst (concussion) sidelined, and Sullivan will likely have a similar offensive role Sunday with Hurst still unavailable. Ian Thomas and Tommy Tremble are also active, so Carolina will likely have a three-man rotation at tight end.

  • Questionable despite full practice

    Sullivan (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints after logging a full practice Friday.

    Analysis: Sullivan followed the same practice schedule as safety Vonn Bell (shoulder), but while Bell was removed from the injury report entirely, Sullivan will carry a questionable tag into Sunday's game. If Sullivan suits up, he could see increased playing time with Hayden Hurst (concussion) ruled out and Tommy Tremble (hip) questionable.

  • Continues to nurse shoulder issue

    Sullivan (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old tight end was able to suit up for the Panthers' Week 13 loss to the Buccaneers, but he still seems to be dealing with a shoulder injury. Sullivan's Week 14 availability will be something to look out for as the week progresses, as Carolina could be without both Tommy Tremble (hip) and Hayden Hurst (concussion) in Sunday's affair.

    Published: Thu, Dec 7 at 11:41am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Injury still lingers

    Sullivan (shoulder) was a limited participant during practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Sullivan dealt with a shoulder injury earlier in the season but has been playing through it and has remained absent from the team's injury reports. It's not clear if this is a new injury or something the LSU product aggravated during Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers. Either way, Sullivan will continue working to get healthy and suit up in Week 14 against the Saints.

  • Ready to go Sunday

    Sullivan (shoulder) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Cowboys, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official website reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan is ready to go for Week 11 after being slowed by a shoulder injury at practice this week. The 26-year-old will operate as a depth option behind Tommy Tremble at tight end Sunday.

  • Has chance to play Sunday

    Sullivan (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Cowboys, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan did not participate at practice Thursday, but he was able to give himself a shot to suit up in Week 11 by getting in a full practice Friday. If he's sidelined, Tommy Tremble could be Carolina's only viable receiver at the tight end position Sunday.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Misses Thursday's practice

    Sullivan (shoulder) didn't participate in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: After logging a full practice Wednesday, Sullivan surprisingly was a non-participant at Thursday's practice. The 26-year-old tight end missed the Panthers' Week 10 loss to the Bears with this shoulder issue, and after Thursday's DNP, he'll likely carry an injury designation into the weekend once again.

    Published: Thu, Nov 16 at 12:52pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Clears injury designation

    Sullivan (shoulder) was a full participant in practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Sullivan logged consecutive DNPs ahead of the team's game against the Bears last Thursday. However, after the layoff, the LSU product was back on the field with no limitations Wednesday and should be ready to suit up in Week 11 against the Cowboys.

    Published: Wed, Nov 15 at 1:08pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Not ready to compete

    Sullivan (shoulder) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Bears.

    Analysis: Sullivan suffered the injury Sunday against the Colts and has logged a DNP each day this week. Carolina signed Jordan Matthews from their practice squad Tuesday, who will likely fill in as the team's No. 3 tight end against Chicago.

  • Not practicing Tuesday

    Sullivan (shoulder) is not expected to practice Tuesday, Augusta Stone of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old tight end is missing his second consecutive practice after he suffered a shoulder injury during Carolina's Week 9 loss to the Colts. Sullivan's chances to suit up Thursday night seem to be getting slimmer, and he'll likely carry an injury designation into the Panthers' Week 10 contest.

  • Non-participant Monday

    Sullivan (shoulder) was a non-participant at Monday's walk-through practice, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official website reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan injured his shoulder in the Panthers' Week 9 loss to the Colts. His inability to participate at Monday's walk-through session is not a good sign for his availability versus the Bears on a short week. However, more transparency on his status will come throughout the week.

  • Suffers shoulder injury

    Sullivan sustained a shoulder injury during Sunday's loss to the Colts, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan had a productive day before his departure, securing four of five targets for 28 yards. It's unclear whether his shoulder injury will impact his availability for Thursday's game in Chicago.

  • Set for season debut

    Sullivan (hip) is active for Sunday's game against Miami.

    Analysis: Sullivan has yet to play this season but was activated from injured reserve Saturday. He practiced in full on both Thursday and Friday, and could serve a depth offensive role in the absence of Ian Thomas (calf).

    Published: Sun, Oct 15 at 8:44am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Activated ahead of Week 6

    The Panthers activated Sullivan (hip) from injured reserve Saturday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan has yet to play in 2023, as he landed on IR prior to the start of the regular season with a hip injury. The fourth-year pro was able to practice in full both Thursday and Friday this week, so despite being questionable for Week 6, he should be good to go for Sunday's contest in Miami, where he'd play a depth role. Sullivan's return is timely because Carolina placed fellow tight end Ian Thomas (calf) on injured reserve in a corresponding move.

  • Questionable for Sunday at Miami

    Sullivan (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Since being designated to return from Carolina's injured reserve list last week, Sullivan has managed three limited practices and two full practices, a promising sign he could suit up for Week 6. If active, he figures to step into a depth role at tight end while contributing primarily on special teams.

  • Could suit up Sunday

    Sullivan (hip) was a full participant at practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Sullivan was designated for return from injured reserve last week and turned in a pair of limited practices as well as a full session, but he wasn't activated ahead of the Panthers' eventual 42-24 loss to the Lions. With one limited and one full practice already under his belt to begin Week 6 prep, Sullivan may have a better chance of making his 2023 debut Sunday at Miami if he can turn in another full practice Friday.

  • Won't play at Detroit

    Sullivan (hip) is listed as out for Sunday's game at the Lions.

    Analysis: Despite practicing in full Friday, Sullivan will sit out for the fifth straight game Sunday. His next chance to return to game action will be in Week 6 at Miami.

  • Remains limited

    Sullivan (hip) was a limited participant during Wednesday's and Thursday's practices.

    Analysis: Sullivan has participated in a limited fashion throughout his first two practices since he was designated to return from injured reserve. The 26-year-old appeared in 14 games for Carolina last season, recording two catches for 46 yards and playing primarily on special teams.

  • Designated to return from IR

    Sullivan (hip) was designated to return from injured reserve by the Panthers on Wednesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official website reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan will now have a 21-day window to return to practice and ultimately be activated off of IR. If he's unable to do so, the tight end will remain sidelined for the rest of the 2023 campaign.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Placed on IR

    Sullivan (undisclosed) will start the season on injured reserve, Augusta Stone of the Panthers' official website reports.

    Analysis: The nature of Sullivan's injury is unclear at this time. When healthy, he is viewed as a depth tight end and special-teams contributor for Carolina. He is now required to miss at least four games, so he will be sidelined until at least Week 5.

  • Inks new deal with Carolina

    The Panthers re-signed Sullivan to a new contract Monday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan was set to enter the 2023 offseason as an exclusive-rights free agent. While the specifics of this new contract have not been divulged, the 26-year-old will now be back for at least one more season with the team. Sullivan accumulated two receptions (on six targets) for 46 yards and a touchdown while playing 121 of 297 snaps on offense over 14 games this season. He figures to reprise a role as the Panthers' No. 3 tight end behind Ian Thomas and Tommy Tremble in 2023.

  • Ready to face Bucs

    Sullivan (ankle) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan was limited in Thursday's practice due to an ankle issue, but it looks like he's good to go for Sunday's divisional road game. The 26-year-old regularly handles a depth role on offense for the Panthers that has seen him record just two catches in 12 appearances this year.

  • Limited on Thursday's report

    Sullivan (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, per the team's official site.

    Analysis: After practicing without limitations Wednesday, Sullivan saw his reps capped during Thursday's session due to an ankle issue, ultimately putting his Week 17 availability in jeopardy. He'll have one more shot to ramp back up to full speed Friday, but Tommy Tremble (hip) would presumably be in line for an expanded backup role behind Ian Thomas on Sunday against the Buccaneers should the 26-year-old miss any time.

  • Available Week 12

    Sullivan (illness) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    Analysis: Sullivan missed Friday's practice with an illness to earn the questionable tag, but he's past the ailment and has been cleared to take the field Sunday. He has two catches for 46 yards in eight games this season and should continue to work behind Ian Thomas and Tommy Tremble at tight end.

  • Questionable after Friday's DNP

    Sullivan (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    Analysis: Sullivan practiced without limitations Wednesday and Thursday before coming down with an illness and missing practice Friday. There seems to be a bug going around in Carolina's tight end room, as Ian Thomas is also questionable due to an illness, leaving Tommy Tremble as the team's only healthy tight end heading into the weekend.

  • Full-go at Monday's jog-through

    Sullivan (illness) was listed as a full participant Monday on Carolina's estimated injury report, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Carolina didn't practice in full Monday, but it's still a positive sign that Sullivan was estimated to be a full participant after he missed Sunday's Week 9 loss to the Bengals due to an illness. However, his availability for Thursday's clash against Atlanta isn't likely to ring any bells in fantasy, as Sullivan has logged only two catches on three targets over six contests this season.

  • Out against Bengals

    Sullivan (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Bengals, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan was unable to practice all week due to illness and will be inactive for the third time this season. His absence isn't likely to have a major effect on the offense, as he has only three targets and two catches in six games on the campaign.

  • Unlikely to play in Week 9

    Sullivan (illness) is doubtful to play Sunday versus the Bengals.

    Analysis: Sullivan failed to participate at any of the Panthers' practices this week while dealing with an illness, making it unlikely that he will be ready to go for Week 9 against Cincinnati. If the tight end is absent from the contest, Ian Thomas could pick up a few extra offensive snaps.

  • Missing practice again

    Sullivan (illness) was a non-participant in practice Thursday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan also missed practice Wednesday due to the illness, which leaves him currently questionable for Sunday's game with the Bengals. If Sullivan is unable to recover in time to play, the Panthers may need to bump up Colin Thompson from the practice squad. If not, Carolina will roll with just Tommy Tremble and Ian Thomas at tight end.

  • Full practice Friday

    Sullivan (back) was a full participant at Friday's practice ahead of the Panthers' Week 6 game against the Rams, Darin Gantt of the team's official website reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan will be ready to go for Sunday's matchup with Los Angeles after logging a full practice Friday. With Baker Mayfield (ankle) unlikely to play, the tight end faces uphill odds to build off his one reception this season.

  • Limited again Thursday

    Sullivan (back) was a limited participant in the Panthers' practice Thursday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan returned to practice in a limited fashion Wednesday after being held out of practice last Thursday and Friday with a back injury. While the exact nature and severity of this issue are still unclear, it proved significant enough to keep him sidelined for Carolina's Week 5 loss to San Francisco. Sullivan recorded the first reception of his NFL career in Week 2, but he's played just six offensive snaps over three games so far this season.

  • Sits out Thursday

    Sullivan (back) did not participate during the Panthers' practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Sullivan appears to have picked up a back injury after logging a full practice Wednesday, though the exact nature and severity of this issue are unclear. The third-year tight end recorded his lone catch of the season in Week 2, and he has played 40 of his 47 total snaps on special teams over three games. Sullivan will have once more practice to improve his status before Sunday's game against San Francisco.

  • Records first career catch

    Sullivan played four of the Panthers' 54 offensive snaps in Sunday's 19-16 loss to the Giants and turned his lone target into a 13-yard reception.

    Analysis: A healthy scratch Week 1, Sullivan dressed as Carolina's third tight end Week 2. Though Ian Thomas (40 snaps, three targets) served as the Panthers' clear top option at the position against the Giants, Sullivan wasn't far behind No. 2 tight end Tommy Tremble (nine snaps) in terms of usage. Even if he jumps Tremble on the depth chart and if Thomas misses time, Sullivan likely won't rank as a high priority in a weak Carolina passing game.

  • Signed to Panthers' active roster

    Sullivan was signed to the active roster from the Panthers' practice squad Saturday, Darin Gantt of the team's official website reports.

    Analysis: The tight end was active for each of the Panthers' last two contests, failing to reel in his only target over 24 offensive snaps. Sullivan will operate as a reserve option behind Tommy Tremble and Ian Thomas as the Panthers wrap up their season Sunday against the Buccaneers.

  • Heads to waivers

    Sullivan was waived by the Panthers on Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan spent most of the 2020 season with the Seahawks' practice squad, suiting up in just one game. Though the LSU product is listed as a tight end, he has tried switching to defensive end in the past and could experiment on the practice squad again.

  • Off COVID-19 list

    The Panthers activated Sullivan (undisclosed) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan can attend team activities now that he's fully cleared the league's COVID protocols. The 2020 seventh-round pick, who appeared in one game with the Seahawks as a rookie, is vying for a depth role with the Panthers.

  • Links up with Carolina

    The Panthers signed Sullivan (abdomen) to a reserve/future contract Wednesday, Will Bryan of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: As a rookie with Seattle this past season, Sullivan only appeared in one game a Week 8 contest against the 49ers in which he played one snap on special teams. The 2020 seventh-round pick should at least now be fully recovered from his November sports hernia surgery, but he'll be looking to impress with a new organization heading into the 2021 campaign.

  • Bumps to active roster

    The Seahawks elevated Sullivan from the practice squad Saturday, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

    Analysis: Sullivan played wide receiver in college, but the Seahawks drafted him in the seventh round with the hopes of converting him to tight end. That didn't pan out, and he's been taking reps at defensive end on the practice squad. The Seahawks already have five other healthy tight ends on the active roster, so Sullivan could see a bulk of his usage on defense if he indeed gets in the game.

  • Unable to lock down roster spot

    Sullivan was waived by the Seahawks on Saturday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: The Seahawks selected Sullivan in the seventh round of April's draft with hopes that the 6-foot-5, 245-pound wide receiver could be converted to tight end. However, the LSU product couldn't effectively make the switch, so the Seahawks opted to keep four established tight ends. If Sullivan clears waivers, expect the Seahawks to continue to develop him on the practice squad.

  • Could play tight end

    Coach Pete Carroll expects Sullivan to start off as a tight end, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

    Analysis: The Seahawks list Sullivan as a wide receiver on their roster but apparently intend to test him out at tight end once they're able to practice. The seventh-round pick was a wideout during his sophomore and junior seasons at LSU, catching 34 passes for 582 yards and three touchdowns before lagging to a 12-130-0 receiving line as a tight end during his senior campaign. At 6-foot-5, 248 pounds with 4.66 speed, Sullivan looks like a TE more so than a WR, but he could still play the latter position…read more
