Carolina Panthers Bring Back Hunter Renfrow as Jalen Coker Goes Down with Injury
- On August 30, 2025, the Carolina Panthers brought back wide receiver Hunter Renfrow by signing him to the roster after placing Jalen Coker, a receiver in his second NFL season, on injured reserve due to a quadriceps injury sustained in practice.
- The decision followed Coker’s quad injury sustained during Thursday practice, which forced him to miss at least four to six games and opened a roster spot for Renfrow.
- Renfrow, a 29-year-old Clemson product and Myrtle Beach native, missed the entire 2024 season managing ulcerative colitis but participated in the Panthers’ offseason and preseason activities.
- Renfrow revealed he experienced a significant weight loss of 35 pounds and endured a week-long fever reaching 103 degrees, but his condition improved following diagnosis and treatment; however, coach Dave Canales mentioned that Renfrow had not yet regained the level of performance he displayed early in training camp.
- Bringing Renfrow back adds veteran experience to Carolina’s receiving corps as they prepare for their 2025 opener against the Jaguars, with hopes to improve after consecutive 10-loss seasons.
