Current Contract

Contract Value Index (CVI)

This signing grades out as a slight overpay for the Carolina Panthers — the team is getting approximately what they're paying for in on-field production. Brycen's on-field performance ranks in the bottom quartile among NFL WRs, grading him as an unproven at the position. His $1.0M average annual value ranks as bargain money for the WR market. The production lines up closely with the price tag — unproven production at bargain money, which is essentially paying fair market value. Brycen is squarely in his prime, which adds to the deal's upside — the team should get multiple productive seasons out of this contract. The 1-year, $1.0M deal keeps the commitment short, giving the team financial flexibility to move on if performance drops.

Performance Analysis

Brycen Tremayne earns a D for the Panthers at wide receiver, a depth player who has made minimal impact on Carolina's struggling offense. Tremayne has not shown the separation ability or hands needed to be a reliable target in the passing game. His limited production reflects a player who is behind more talented options on a depth chart that itself is not deep. The Panthers need help at receiver, but Tremayne has not demonstrated he is part of the solution. He is fighting for a roster spot based on special teams contributions and positional depth, not offensive production.

Fan Sentiment

A routine roster-maintenance move, retaining a developmental receiver on an exclusive rights tender. Five headlines covered the signing, mostly bundled with fellow WR Jalen Coker's tender. The exclusive rights tender signals Tremayne has no market leverage and remains firmly a depth option. Fans see this as a low-risk, low-reward move to preserve roster flexibility heading into camp. Tremayne projects as a practice-squad bubble player unless he earns a genuine role in Carolina's rebuild.
