Chris Manhertz Fantasy

Carolina Panthers tight end Chris Manhertz (foot) passed his physical and has been activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list on Friday. Manhertz will be the third tight end on the depth chart behind Greg Olsen and rookie Ian Thomas. He can be avoided in all fantasy leagues.

Carolina Panthers tight end Chris Manhertz (foot) will start training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list after being hurt in June minicamp. He had surgery on his foot for a Jones fracture and is hoping to return before the start of the regular season. Manhertz is the backup to Greg Olsen but is mostly a blocking tight end, so he doesn't have much fantasy intrigue, even if Olsen were to be injured.

Carolina Panthers tight end Chris Manhertz (foot), who suffered a left foot injury in minicamp, is unlikely to be ready for the start of training camp this month. However, he's still the favorite for No. 2 duties behind Greg Olsen in 2018. The other tight ends on roster are Ian Thomas, Jason Vander Laan and Evan Baylis. Coaches have liked what they've seen from Thomas, and he could contribute in his rookie season. Still, Manhertz would be the beneficiary of a starting role if Olsen were to go down with an injury.
