Temarrick Hemingway

This is likely a depth signing for a team hampered by tight end injuries. Logan Thomas is still struggling through a serious hamstring injury and Ricky Seals-Jones could miss some time with a hip injury he sustained in Week 10 against Tampa. John Bates took over as the Football Team's primary pass catching tight end after Seals-Jones' departure. He could have some streaming appeal in Week 11 against the Panthers if RSJ is out. 

Hemingway spent the 2019 season on Carolina's practice squad, and he'll remain with the team heading into the offseason. With Greg Olsen's future with the Panthers uncertain, Hemingway could benefit from additional available opportunities in the team's tight end room.

Hemingway finished the preseason with three catches for 49 yards and a touchdown, but that effort still wasn't enough to land him on Carolina's 53-man roster. Nonetheless, he'll hope to parlay his practice squad spot into a promotion sometime this season. The towering wideout played five games for the Broncos last season, but failed to catch any passes and is yet to find regular-season value outside of special teams work.

Hemingway will benefit from a bit of extra time to search for another gig before Week 1. He offers some upside as a special-teams asset.
