Breakout Season Loading? Ja’Tavion Sanders Poised to Be Panthers’ Next Star TE
Panthers fans, it might be time to circle Ja’Tavion Sanders as the breakout name of the 2025 season. The second-year tight end is dominating training camp, drawing rave reviews from coaches and teammates, and flashing the kind of elite potential Carolina hasn’t seen at the position since the Greg Olsen era.
After an encouraging rookie year—where he posted more receiving yards than any Panthers TE since Olsen—Sanders has returned with a sleeker frame, improved footwork, and most importantly, growing chemistry with quarterback Bryce Young. Reports from camp suggest Sanders is quickly becoming one of Young’s go-to targets, especially in red zone and third-down situations.
With Tommy Tremble nursing an injury and rookie Mitchell Evans still adjusting to the pro game, Sanders has a clear path to locking down the TE1 spot. What’s setting him apart? According to insiders, it’s his route precision, sure hands, and ability to create mismatches downfield. His ability to stretch the seam and win 1-on-1 matchups is giving defensive coordinators fits—and giving Carolina fans reason for hope.
“He’s taking a big leap,” one Panthers assistant coach said. “Every day, he’s making plays. You can feel his confidence building.”
Social media is already buzzing with highlights from practice, and many fans are calling him the X-factor for the 2025 offense. If Sanders continues this trajectory, he could be a breakout fantasy gem and a key piece in the Panthers’ offensive resurgence.
Whether you’re watching from the stands or your screen, keep your eyes on No. 85—because Ja’Tavion Sanders might just be the next great tight end in Panthers history.
