Tremble (back) didn't appear on the Panthers' initial Week 12 injury report released Wednesday. The Notre Dame product has missed four of the Panthers' last five games due to a concussion and a back injury. However, his absence from Carolina's injury report Wednesday suggests that the team's Week 11 bye provided enough time for him to recover from his back issue. With Tremble back to full health, he's expected to work in tandem at tight end with rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders in Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

Tremble (back) didn't appear on the Panthers' initial Week 12 injury report released Wednesday. The Notre Dame product has missed four of the Panthers' last five games due to a concussion and a back injury. However, his absence from Carolina's injury report Wednesday suggests that the team's Week 11 bye provided enough time for him to recover from his back issue. With Tremble back to full health, he's expected to work in tandem at tight end with rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders in Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
Tremble (back) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants in Munich, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports. Tremble will be sidelined for the fifth time in 10 games on the season, with the back issue causing the last three absences. With Tremble sidelined in Germany, rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders should start at tight end and dominate the playing time after he logged 84 percent of the snaps in a Week 9 win over the Saints and finished with four catches for 87 yards on five targets.
Tremble (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants. Tremble was a full practice participant Wednesday and Friday, sandwiched around a limited session Thursday. He thus seems likely to avoid a fourth absence in five games, but his role may be smaller than what he handled earlier in the season now that rookie tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders has begun to make a name for himself. Tremble's status will be confirmed, one way or another, when the Panthers release their inactive list 90 minutes before the 9:30 a.m. ET kickoff this Sunday in Munich.
Tremble (back) was a limited participant at practice Thursday. Tremble logged a full practice Wednesday, but it's unclear if his downgrade to limited activity was the result of a setback or part of a maintenance program. The Panthers will provide a final update on Tremble's status for Sunday's game against the Giants in Munich when they release their final injury report of the week Friday.
Tremble (back) was a full practice participant Wednesday, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports. Tremble missed three of the past four games with a concussion and then a back injury, including the Panthers' 23-22 win over the Saints this past Sunday. He hasn't seen many targets this season, but his availability (or lack thereof) has been a major factor in determining rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders' playing time. The Panthers may start to give Sanders more snaps even when Tremble is healthy, after the rookie caught four of five targets for a career-high 87 yards in the win over New Orleans. In any case, Tremble is set to return this Sunday against the Giants in Munich.
Tremble (back) is listed as inactive Sunday versus the Saints, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports. Tremble now is sidelined for a third time in the last four games due to a back injury, and with Feleipe Franks (concussion) also out, the Panthers will rely on Ja'Tavion Sanders, Ian Thomas and practice-squad elevation Jordan Matthews at tight end Week 9.
Tremble (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports. After missing games in Week 6 and 7 due to the back injury, Tremble returned to the lineup for this past Sunday's loss to Denver, playing 57 percent of the snaps on offense while recording two catches for 13 yards on three targets. The back issue has still been affecting Tremble's practice time, as he was a non-participant in Wednesday's session before returning to the field Thursday as a limited participant. He submitted a full practice Friday, however, and provided he didn't experience any setbacks, Tremble will likely be cleared to play Sunday. He'll presumably be splitting work at tight end with rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders in Week 9.
Tremble (back) was limited in Thursday's practice. Tremble has logged two consecutive limited practices since suiting up for Carolina's loss to the Broncos in Week 8. He'll work to prove his health in time to take the field Sunday versus the Saints. If good to go for Week 9, Tremble will be in line to start at tight end for quarterback Bryce Young, with rookie fourth-rounder Ja'Tavion Sanders handling No. 2 reps.
Tremble (back) is not practicing Wednesday. Tremble was able to return from a lingering back injury for Carolina's loss to the Broncos in Week 8, a game in which he secured two of three targets for 13 yards. The veteran tight end saw more opportunities than rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders, but neither were significantly involved in the passing game with Bryce Young under center. Tremble will look to get healthy in time for Sunday's game against New Orleans and demonstrate a better rapport with Young.
