Free-agent TE Hayden Hurst (Panthers) signed with the Los Angeles Chargers Friday, March 15. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Free-agent tight end Hayden Hurst (concussion) is visiting the Los Angeles Chargers with the intention to sign with the team, according to a source. Hurst was recently released by the Carolina Panthers. The 30-year-old veteran signed a three-year, $21.75 million deal with the Panthers last offseason but missed the final eight games last year due to a serious post-traumatic amnesia concussion. There were questions as to whether Hurst would even continue his career, but he's apparently recovered and plans to continue playing in 2024. Veteran Gerald Everett is no longer in LA, but they still have Donald Parham Jr. and recently signed Will Dissly to the TE room, so Hurst would be battling for playing time with those two if he were to sign with the Chargers. Hurst, a former first-rounder (25th overall) in 2018, caught just 18 passes for 184 yards and one touchdown in Carolina last year.

Dynasty | The Carolina Panthers have released tight end Hayden Hurst. Dynasty Analysis: Hurst makes it through just one year of his "three year contract" in Carolina by posting a mediocre 18/184/1 line in nine games for the Panthers last season. A habitual sleeper candidate nearly every off-season, Hurst just hasn't been able to put it all together in stints with Atlanta, Cincinnati, Baltimore and Carolina. He'll hit the open market and look for new team while dynasty owners look elsewhere for tight end help of their own.

The Carolina Panthers are releasing tight end Hayden Hurst (concussion) on Tuesday after just one season with the team. Hurst missed the final eight games of the 2023 season due to a pretty serious concussion, although he's recovered now and should be ready for training camp this summer. The 30-year-old signed a three-year, $21.75 million deal with Carolina prior to last season. Before his concussion, he wasn't really a factor in what was a pretty bad Panthers offense led by rookie quarterback Bryce Young last year. Hurst caught just 18 receptions for 184 yards and a touchdown before suffering his head injury in Week 10. Fantasy managers probably won't be looking at Hurst in 12-team leagues in 2024, but depending on his health and where he lands, he could bounce back.

Carolina Panthers TE Hayden Hurst is expected to be released before the start of the new league year, according to sources.

Carolina Panthers tight end Hayden Hurst (concussion) said he cleared the league's concussion protocol on Sunday and is looking forward to a fresh start. Hurst suffered a serious concussion in Week 10 and never played again in the 2023 season. The 30-year-old was diagnosed with post-traumatic amnesia and was eventually placed on Injured Reserve. In his nine games played in his first year in Carolina, Hurst caught only 18 passes for 184 yards and one touchdown in the worst offense in football in which rookie quarterback Bryce Young struggled mightily. He signed a three-year, $21.75 million deal last offseason, so Hurst will be back in 2024 with a new head coach and new general manager running things in Carolina. Depending on whether a new coaching staff can get more out of Young and this offense, Hurst could improve if he can stay healthy.

The Carolina Panthers are placing tight end Hayden Hurst (concussion) on Injured Reserve on Friday, which will end his 2023 season. Hurst hasn't played since suffering a serious concussion in Week 10 against the Chicago Bears and was later diagnosed with post-traumatic amnesia. He had returned to practice on a limited basis last week but was not allowed to return to game action in Week 14 and has now been shut down for the rest of the year as a precaution. The 30-year-old said he didn't expect this to be a career-threatening injury, but we at least won't see Hurst until next fall. He finishes the 2023 campaign (his first in Carolina) with only 18 catches for 184 yards and one TD in nine games. Tommy Tremble (hip) and Ian Thomas (ankle) are the next men up at the position in Carolina but aren't really attractive at all in fantasy on this one-win team.

Carolina Panthers tight end Hayden Hurst (concussion) is not practicing on Wednesday ahead of the Week 15 matchup with the Atlanta Falcons. Hurst was a limited participant in practice last week for the first time since suffering a concussion in Week 10, so his practice status being downgraded is not a good sign for his return. The veteran was diagnosed with traumatic amnesia by an independent neurologist from the hit he took in Week 10, and the Panthers are not likely to take any chances with his health. There's a chance Hurst does not play against this season. Even if he does, he won't enter the fantasy radar given the Panthers' offensive struggles.

The Carolina Panthers have declared CB Shaquill Griffin, S Jammie Robinson, DL DeShawn Williams, WR Terrace Marshall Jr., DE Eku Leota, TE Hayden Hurst and OT Ricky Lee inactive for Week 14.

Dec 8 12:50pm ET

Carolina Panthers tight end Hayden Hurst (concussion) has officially been ruled out for the Week 14 game on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints. Hurst actually returned to practice this week on a limited basis, but he was diagnosed with post-traumatic amnesia from the concussion he suffered in Week 10 and will now miss his fourth straight game. Hurst said his head injury isn't career-threatening, but this is not a matter he nor the Panthers will take lightly. Tommy Tremble (hip) missed the Week 13 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and is questionable to play this weekend, as well as Stephen Sullivan (shoulder), so the Panthers could be down to Ian Thomas as their starting tight end against the Saints. Fantasy managers should continue to avoid Carolina's tight end situation.

Dec 8 12:33pm ET

Carolina Panthers DT DeShawn Williams (knee) did not practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 14 against the New Orleans Saints. TE Hayden Hurst (concussion) was limited in practice all week and has also been ruled out. C Bradley Bozeman (ankle) and LB Yetur Gross-Matos (hamstring) were also limited in practice all week and are listed as questionable. LB Marquis Haynes (back), TE Stephen Sullivan (shoulder) and TE Tommy Tremble (hip) practiced in full on Friday, Dec. 8, but are also listed as questionable. CB Troy Hill (ankle), S Jeremy Chinn (quad) and CB Jaycee Horn (hamstring) were limited in practice on Friday but have been removed from the injury report. OT Taylor Moton (knee), S Vonn Bell (shoulder) and LB Amare Barno (ankle) practiced in full on Friday and also no longer appear on the injury report.

Carolina Panthers TE Hayden Hurst (concussion) was limited during practice Thursday, Dec. 7.

Fantasy Spin: Hurst has been working through a serious issue but believes he will play again this season. Fantasy players can keep an eye on the situation but can avoid him when he returns.

Carolina Panthers DT DeShawn Williams (knee) and LB DJ X. Johnson (personal) did not practice on Thursday, Dec. 7.

LB Amare Barno (ankle) practiced in full.

From TheHuddle

Dec 7 12:40pm ET

Carolina Panthers tight end Hayden Hurst (concussion) doesn't think the post-traumatic amnesia he was diagnosed with by an independent neurologist after suffering a concussion will be career-ending. "I'm doing better each day," Hurst said. "It's not going to end my career, just being cautious as I come back. Should be another week or two." Hurst appeared as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice for the first time since suffering the concussion on Nov. 9 against the Chicago Bears. The 30-year-old has been out for the last three games and is likely to miss a few more before returning. He has only 18 catches for 184 yards and one touchdown in nine games this year, putting him off the fantasy radar. With Tommy Tremble (hip) missing last week, the Panthers were down to Ian Thomas and Stephen Sullivan.
