  • Minimal output in 2025

    Renfrow caught 15 of 26 targets for 89 yards and two touchdowns across six regular-season games for the Panthers in 2025.

    Analysis: The 30-year-old wideout joined the Panthers on a one-year deal in late August after taking a break from football in 2024. Renfrow appeared poised to play a significant role early in the season, catching nine of 15 targets for 59 yards and two touchdowns over Carolina's first two games. However, he became a healthy scratch for each game following the Week 6 win over the Cowboys, as Jalen Coker returned from injury and rookie Jimmy Horn emerged as a key depth option. Renfrow was dropped by the…read more

  • Loses roster spot

    The Panthers waived Renfrow on Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: After sitting out the 2024 season, Renfrow joined the Panthers on a one-year deal during the offseason and was able to secure a spot on the roster coming out of the preseason. The veteran slot receiver saw plenty of involvement early in the season with a 15-89-2 receiving line on 26 targets through the Panthers' first six games, but he was a healthy inactive from Week 7 onward after Carolina got Jalen Coker back from injured reserve. Renfrow will now lose his spot on the roster in advance of…read more

    Analysis: Renfrow has not appeared in a regular-season games since Week 6 against the Cowboys, with his absence coinciding with the return of Jalen Coker from injured reserve. Renfrow's next chance to play is Week 18 against the Buccaneers, though he's unlikely to be active for that contest unless the Panthers suffer an injury in their wide receiver corps.

    Renfrow (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Renfrow will be a healthy scratch yet again, a designation he has held since Week 7. It seems that the only chance the wide receiver might have to suit up this season will be if the Panthers' receiving depth is weakened by injuries.

  • Another week as healthy scratch

    Renfrow (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 13 contest against the Rams, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow appears to be the odd man out in Carolina's WR room, as he's now been a healthy scratch seven straight weeks. The rest of the Panthers' wideout corps is healthy (aside from David Moore [elbow], who is on IR), so Renfrow may continue to sit on game days unless an injury occurs to a player further up the pecking order.

    Analysis: This marks the fifth straight week that Renfrow is inactive as a healthy scratch. While the veteran wideout has had a few nice moments when active this season, it's clear that Carolina is prioritizing developing its young wideouts even as the team has an outside chance at claiming a playoff spot.

  • Crucial catch vs. Dallas

    Renfrow caught one of two targets for seven yards during Sunday's 30-27 win over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Although Renfrow underwhelmed again in the Week 6 win, his only catch came on a crucial fourth-down conversion late in the fourth quarter that helped set up the Panthers' game-winning field goal. The veteran wideout from Clemson has now caught just four of seven targets for 24 yards over Carolina's last three games, and his role is expected to diminish even further once Jalen Coker (quadriceps) returns from injured reserve.

    Renfrow caught one of three targets for seven yards in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Renfrow logged 28 offensive snaps in Sunday's contest, operating as the team's No. 3 wideout behind Tetairoa McMillan (58) and Xavier Legette (51). However, he wasn't heavily involved in the offense, finishing with fewer yards than both Jimmy Horn (31 total yards) and Brycen Tremayne (nine yards). Renfrow has now caught just five of nine targets over the past three games, suggesting his role in the Panthers' offense has diminished.

    Analysis: Renforw has been held in check over the Panthers' last two contests, catching four of his six targets for just 16 yards, despite Carolina being without two of its top wideouts in Jalen Coker (quadriceps) and Xavier Legette (hamstring). Additionally, Renfrow (32 snaps) played fewer offensive snaps than Brycen Tremayne (53 snaps), suggesting he's operating as the Panthers' No. 3 wide receiver even with all the injuries.

  • Held to six yards

    Renfrow recorded two catches on four targets for six yards in Sunday's 30-0 win over Atlanta.

    Analysis: The Panthers held a comfortable lead for most of the game and also had a pick-six, limiting the team's passing volume. As a result, Renfrow finished second on the team with four targets, though that translated to an abysmal six yards. Renfrow has a clear role in the offense -- particularly while Jalen Coker (hamstring) is sidelined -- but he's been held under 15 receiving yards in two of three games this season.

  • Hauls in two scores Sunday

    Renfrow (ribs) racked up seven receptions on nine targets for 48 yards and a pair of touchdowns in Sunday's 27-22 loss to Arizona.

    Analysis: Renfrow was cleared from the rib injury that limited him during the practice week, and his strong play solidified his clean bill of health. The veteran slot man was held to just 11 yards on two receptions in his first action since 2023 last week, but this was a significant spike in both usage and production. Both of Renfrow's scores were quick strikes from within five yards of the end zone as Carolina tried to claw its way back into this contest. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect this kind of…read more

  • Cleared to suit up Week 2

    Renfrow (ribs) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Renfrow upgraded to full participation in Friday's practice after opening the week with a pair of limited sessions. The veteran slot receiver was understandably sore after his first regular-season NFL action since the 2023 campaign in Carolina's Week 1 loss to the Jaguars. Renfrow had two catches for 11 yards on six targets in the season opener.

  • Another limited practice Thursday

    Renfrow (ribs) remained limited in practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Renfrow has started Week 2 prep with consecutive limited practices. A full showing Friday would likely help the veteran slot receiver avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game in Arizona. Renfrow turned six targets into only 11 yards in his Panthers debut against the Jaguars in Week 1, as Carolina quarterback Bryce Young struggled.

  • Dealing with rib injury

    Renfrow (ribs) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Renfrow finished Week 1 second on the Panthers in route share (81 percent) and third in targets (six), but with just 11 yards to show for it. He took 74 percent of his snaps in the slot, which is where he'll likely be again this Sunday if he's healthy enough to suit up at Arizona, squaring off with Cardinals slot corner Garrett Williams.

  • Nabs two passes in Panthers debut

    Renforw caught two of his six targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 26-10 loss to the Jaguars.

    Analysis: The veteran wideout logged 42 offensive snaps during Sunday's loss, ranking third amongst Carolina receivers behind Tetairoa McMillan (53) and Xavier Legette (50). Although Bryce Young was forced to throw 35 times due to Carolina's 20-point fourth-quarter deficit, Renfrow still finished third on the team in targets, which could be a promising sign for his role in this offense. Renfrow is expected to continue serving as the Panthers' No. 3 wide receiver as the team travels to Arizona in Week 2.

  • Listed as starter on depth chart

    Renfrow is listed as a starter on Carolina's first unofficial depth chart of the regular season.

    Analysis: Renfrow re-signed with the Panthers on Saturday after being released on cutdown day. He spent training camp with Carolina and is set to operate in the slot while Tetairoa McMillan and Xavier Legette work on the outside. Renfrow's ascent up the depth chart was spurred on by the Panthers trading fellow veteran slot receiver Adam Thielen to Minnesota and Jalen Coker (quadriceps) going on IR.

  • Will suit up Sunday

    Panthers head coach Dave Canales said Monday that Renfrow will play Sunday versus the Jaguars, Steve Reed of the Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow failed to secure a spot on Carolina's initial 53-man roster but was re-signed by the team Saturday in the wake of Jalen Coker (quadriceps) being placed on IR and ruled out for at least the first four games of the season. The Panthers also traded Adam Thielen to Minnesota on Thursday, meaning after spending the offseason with the team, Renfrow now is competing with just David Moore and Jimmy Horn for opportunities behind Tetairoa McMillan (hamstring) and Xavier Legette in Week 1.

    Analysis: Renfrow wasn't initially able to make Carolina's 53-man roster, but the team needed to bring in another wideout after trading Adam Thielen to Minnesota on Thursday. Renfrow didn't play at all in 2024, so it could be interesting to see how the year off affects his play on the field early in 2025.

    The Panthers released Renfrow on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow spent the offseason in Carolina working towards an NFL comeback, but he couldn't secure a spot. That may speak more to the Panthers' crowded wide receiver corps, headlined by Tetairoa McMillan (hamstring), Adam Thielen, Xavier Legette and Jalen Coker, than it does Renfrow's ability to contribute as a depth option. He could be a candidate to end up on Carolina's practice squad.

  • Quiet in preseason finale

    Renfrow caught two of three targets for five yards in Thursday's preseason loss to Pittsburgh.

    Analysis: The Panthers rested most of their starters and some key backups, allowing Renfrow, Jalen Coker and David Moore to take most of the WR snaps early on. Renfrow didn't show much Thursday night, but recent trade rumors regarding Adam Thielen perhaps offer Renfrow a path to some kind of role with Carolina early in the season. There's also a chance the 29-year-old slot specialist has to settle for a spot on the practice squad or is let go entirely before Week 1.

    Renfrow (hamstring) is participating in Monday's padded practice, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow missed over a week of practice and Friday's preseason opener against the Browns due to a lingering hamstring injury, but the veteran wideout now appears to be ready to handle practice reps without restrictions. After having spent the 2024 season away from the NFL, Renfrow inked a one-year deal with Carolina in April and is competing for a slot role in the Panthers' wide receiver corps.

  • Unlikely to play Friday

    Renfrow (hamstring) is not expected to play in Friday's preseason opener against the Browns, Joe Person of The Athletic rpeorts.

    Analysis: Renfrow is working through a hamstring injury and hasn't practiced since late July, but there's optimism that the veteran wideout will be available for the Panthers' second preseason game against the Texans on Saturday, Aug. 16. Renfrow's absence opens the door for wideouts further down the depth chart to get more reps on offense, including David Moore, Jimmy Horn and Brycen Tremayne. Renfrow signed a one-year contract with the Panthers in April after taking a season off in 2024.

  • Progressing but not practicing

    Renfrow (hamstring) has resumed running but isn't yet back at practice, Steve Reed of the Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow has sat out roughly one week of practices due to a tweaked hamstring, but Carolina appears to be taking a cautious approach to the veteran wideout's return. That caution seems prudent, given that Renfrow last suited up for NFL action in 2023. The 29-year-old slot specialist is competing for reps in a surprisingly crowded Panthers receiving corps.

    Renfrow (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Per Gantt and Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer, Renfrow's hamstring issue isn't anything long-term, with the veteran wideout having told coach Dave Canales that he'd be able to play this week if there was a game. When healthy, Renfrow -- who last saw regular-season action in 2023 -- will look to secure a slot role in a Panthers WR corps that also includes Tetairoa McMillan, Adam Thielen, Xavier Legette and Jalen Coker.

    The Raiders will release Renfrow on Wednesday, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The move will open up $8.21 million in cap space for the Raiders in 2024 and was seen as an inevitability unless Renfrow agreed to a large paycut. He caught 103 passes for 1,038 yards and nine touchdowns in 2021 -- his third NFL season -- but then had only 585 yards in 27 games the past two seasons after signing a two-year, $32.33 million extension.

  • Likely headed for release

    The Raiders can add $11.8 million in 2024 cap space if they release Renfrow with a post-June 1 designation, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow has just one season left on his contract, but the use of void years means dead-cap charges for 2025 and 2026 will accelerate onto the 2024 sheet if he's traded before June 1 or released without the aforementioned designation. Either way, the Raiders would avoid paying him an $11.53 million base salary, $100,000 workout bonus and up to $629,000 in per-game roster bonuses. It's an obvious move given his lack of production the past two seasons, though there is a scenario in which Renfrow…read more

  • Catchless over last four games

    Renfrow, who didn't catch a single pass throughout the Raiders' final four games, ended the 2023 season with 25 total receptions for 255 yards on 37 targets in 17 contests.

    Analysis: Renfrow's otherwise disappointing 2023 campaign was highlighted by a three-game stretch between Weeks 11 and 14 in which he posted a 12-126-0 line on 14 targets, but he promptly saw his playing time dwindle thereafter in favor of rookie Tre Tucker's development behind fellow wideouts Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers. If the team is unable to find a trade partner for Renfrow this offseason, the 28-year-old slot receiver could be a release candidate at a $5.5 million dead cap expense, which would…read more

    Renfrow caught three of five targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 3-0 loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: The veteran slot receiver finished second on the Raiders in receiving yards, but Renfrow also may have cost his team the game -- on Las Vegas' first possession of the second half, he caught a receiver screen and fumbled the ball after a big hit, ending the Raiders' only trip into the red zone. Renfrow has seen a more consistent role in the game plan since Josh McDaniels was fired, but he still has yet to catch a TD or reach 50 yards in a game heading into a Week 15 clash with the Chargers.

    Analysis: Renfrow finally caught more than two passes in a single game for the first time all season, but he played only three more offensive snaps (27) than rookie Tre Tucker (24) in Miami. Renfrow averaged just 8.4 yards per catch Sunday despite notching a 31-yard reception in the fourth quarter, while fellow receiver Davante Adams corralled seven of 13 targets for 82 yards and a score.

    Analysis: Renfrow played ahead of rookie Tre Tucker in the No. 3 receiver role for the Raiders on Sunday Night Football, but alpha Davante Adams was targeted on nearly half of Aidan O'Connell's 27 pass attempts, hogging 13 looks from the rookie quarterback while Renfrow saw just one opportunity come his way. Renfrow has yet to find the end zone through the team's first 10 games of the season, but Las Vegas could be forced to throw more often as a heavy underdog against the Dolphins in Week 11.

    Analysis: Renfrow's pair of receptions came on back-to-back plays in the second quarter to set up a two-yard touchdown rush for Josh Jacobs, giving the Raiders a two-score lead. Renfrow would ultimately log just 13 offensive snaps, however, while rookie Tre Tucker earned more playing time behind fellow receivers Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers. Despite the departure of former head coach Josh McDaniels, Renfrow's role appears to remain limited ahead of a Week 10 tilt against the Jets.

If nobody's dealt ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline, Renfrow figures to remain behind Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers in the pecking order at wide receiver against the Giants in Week 9.

Fellow wideouts Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers also hogged 25 targets between the two, leaving Renfrow little opportunity to produce. Given his diminished role in the Raiders' offense, the veteran slot receiver won't have much more fantasy appeal in Week 8 against the Lions even if Jimmy Garoppolo (back) returns to the lineup.

With just six catches for 59 yards through the Raiders' first five games, Renfrow's usage remains entirely underwhelming heading into a Week 6 home matchup against the Patriots.

  • Season-high four targets in loss

    Renfrow caught two passes for 12 yards on four targets in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: Renfrow doubled his previous season high in targets with four looks from fill-in starter Aidan O'Connell on Sunday, but the former has caught just five total passes for 52 yards through the Raiders' first four contests. As the offense continues to revolve around Josh Jacobs, Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers, Renfrow's lack of significant production could continue against the Packers in Week 5.

  • Targeted twice on SNF

    Renfrow caught two passes on as many targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 23-18 loss to the Steelers.

    Analysis: Renfrow logged a season-high 37 offensive snaps despite Jakobi Meyers' return from a concussion. The slot receiver has earned only three total targets through the Raiders' first three contests of the season however, resulting in a poor 3-40-0 line ahead of a Week 4 matchup against the Chargers.

  • Can't get going against Bills

    Renfrow recorded one reception on one target for 23 yards in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Renfrow was projected to see an increased role in the absence of Jakobi Meyers (concussion). That didn't come to fruition, however, as the only Raiders skill-position players to receive more than three targets were Davante Adams and Josh Jacobs. After failing to command a target in Week 1, Renfrow seems to be facing an uphill battle to be a consistent contributor to the offense in 2023.

  • Chance to rebound with Meyers out

    Renfrow could be poised for a larger role Sunday in Buffalo, as Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports that Jakobi Meyers (concussion) has been ruled out.

    Analysis: Meyers was concussed late in the 17-16 Week 1 win over the Broncos after catching nine of 10 targets for 81 yards and two touchdowns, while Renfrow wasn't targeted in that game. Vegas doesn't have much depth at wide receiver, so Meyers' absence should lead to more opportunities for Renfrow in the slot while No. 4 receiver DeAndre Carter could step in on the outside opposite Davante Adams. "Jakobi's a really good football player and, so, if he's not available then everybody has to step up and…read more

  • Not targeted in season opener

    Renfrow was not targeted in the Raiders' 17-16 win over the Broncos on Sunday.

    Analysis: The veteran receiver was firmly overshadowed by fellow wideouts Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers (concussion) in the season opener. Renfrow logged just 13 offensive snaps, and even No. 4 WR DeAndre Carter caught a pass on the Raiders' final drive. However, Meyers left the contest late with a head injury, so he'll be subject to the league's concussion protocols ahead of a Week 2 matchup in Buffalo. If Meyers is unable to go, Renfrow could handle a majority of the slot opportunities.

  • Impressing in training camp

    General manager Dave Ziegler said he's "seen a lot of good stuff" from Renfrow (shoulder) during training camp, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports.

    Analysis: "It's been great to seen him feel great, playing great and ecstatic to see that development," Ziegler added. Renfrow was the subject of trade speculation earlier in the offseason and has barely been heard from this summer. He and Jakobi Meyers feel redundant as slot receivers, but the Raiders seemingly have a plan. Renfrow's fantasy startability is unlikely to return in 2023 if he's in Las Vegas.

    Renfrow has avoided addressing trade rumors and recently said he'd like to prove the Raiders right for re-signing him, ESPN's Paul Gutierrez reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow's 2021 breakout led to a two-year, $32 million contract extension last summer, with new coach Josh McDaniels and new general manager Dave Ziegler apparently optimistic the slot receiver would continue the success he enjoyed under the previous regime. It didn't work out that way, as an oblique injury and concussion cost Renfrow seven games and contributed to a career-low 330 receiving yards, barely more than half of his previous low-water mark.

He made the most of that opportunity and showed strong rapport with Jarrett Stidham by hauling in passes of 16 and 14 yards to highlight his day.

    Renfrow caught three passes for 19 yards on four targets in Sunday's 37-34 overtime loss to the 49ers.

    Analysis: Renfrow was unable to take advantage of the impressive 15.9 yards per completion that quarterback Jarrett Stidham posted in his first career NFL start, while fellow pass catchers Davante Adams and Darren Waller combined for 225 yards and three touchdowns on 10 receptions. Renfrow has caught just eight of 14 targets in three games since returning from injured reserve, but he could benefit from another pass-friendly game script against the Chiefs in Week 18.

    Renfrow recorded four catches (on seven targets) for 42 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 13-10 loss at Pittsburgh.

    Analysis: The Raiders marched 72 yards on the first drive of the game, capping it with a nifty play by Renfrow to get into the end zone from 14 yards out. Otherwise, this offense more often than not found itself stuck in neutral, with Derek Carr and company totaling just 143 net passing yards. It should be noted that Renfrow's seven targets marked his second-highest mark of the season, so in a unit composed of Davante Adams, Darren Waller and Mack Hollins, Renfrow is a hit-or-miss option, especially with…read more

    Analysis: Renfrow logged less than 30 of the Raiders' 68 offensive snaps in his return from the oblique injury that landed him on injured reserve for five weeks, and it was fellow slot receiver Keelan Cole that turned in the better fantasy performance, as the latter posted two receptions for 50 yards and the game-tying touchdown.

    Renfrow (oblique) has been activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Patriots.

    Analysis: The return of Renfrow, who last suited up Week 9, will bolster the Raiders' passing attack ahead of the team's last four games. It remains to be seen if he'll log a full workload in his return to action, but once he's up to speed, Las Vegas' slot receiver could log enough targets to merit attention in PPR formats.

    Analysis: With Darren Waller (oblique) also designated for return from IR, the Raiders could have two talented pass catchers back in the lineup as soon as Sunday's game against New England. Las Vegas will need to move Renfrow back to the active roster by Saturday in order for him to be eligible to play, but Wednesday's transaction means he can now practice with his teammates before a decision is made on his status for the Week 15 contest.

    Raiders head coach. Josh McDaniel said Wednesday that Renfrow (oblique) is getting "close" but won't necessarily be available when first eligible to return from injured reserve Week 14 against the Rams, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: It's perhaps unfortunate for the Raiders that they play on a Thursday the same week that Renfrow and tight end Darren Waller (hamstring) both are eligible to return from IR. On a brighter note, the Raiders seem to expect both players to return at some point in December, if not for the matchup with Los Angeles in Week 14.

The shifty slot receiver has seen his production decline this season and remains without a score in his five appearances. Renfrow will strive to bounce back while breaking that drought in Week 9 versus the Jaguars.

Mack Hollins has been a featured target (11-191-1) in Renfrow's absence and likely will still see plenty of snaps, but the Raiders figure to utilize the short-yardage target plenty in what could be an offensive shootout against the Chiefs.

    Renfrow caught seven passes for 58 yards on 10 targets against Arizona on Sunday. He also fumbled twice, losing one, and Paul Gutierrez of ESPN reports that Renfrow's being evaluated for a concussion after taking a hit as he fumbled.

    Analysis: Ideally, Renfrow would have posted better numbers in this game, which saw Week 1 target hog Davante Adams finish with just two catches for 12 yards and one touchdown on seven targets. Renfrow's 10 targets led the Raiders, and he's delivered better returns with similar volume in the past so this was largely a missed opportunity. His fumble was also extremely costly, as Renfrow was injured on the play while a Cardinals defender scooped the ball up and returned it for the winning touchdown in…read more

  • Quiet Week 1 showing

    Renfrow caught three passes on six targets for 21 yards against the Chargers on Sunday.

    Analysis: The Raiders aggressively fed Davante Adams, giving him 17 of the Raiders' 35 targets and leaving only six each for Renfrow and Darren Waller. The target distribution will probably need to be more even in upcoming weeks, but for now it appears Renfrow might struggle to obtain the target volume necessary to approach his 2021 production. Renfrow is clearly a good player, though, so if the Raiders decide to prioritize him more in the future he'll likely be ready for the call.

  • Remains back in Vegas on Saturday

    Renfrow (coach's decision) did not make the trip to Miami for the Raiders' 15-13 preseason win over the Dolphins on Saturday night, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow also sat out the Raiders' preseason opener against the Jaguars back on Aug. 4, as well as the victory over the Vikings in the team's second exhibition. Given his importance to the team's air attack and the fact the likes of Derek Carr and Davante Adams also didn't play Saturday night, Renfrow's third consecutive absence isn't overly surprising. Renfrow's final chance to suit up before the regular-season opener against the Chargers comes in Friday night's exhibition finale versus the…read more

  • Sits out preseason opener

    Renfrow sat out Thursday's Hall of Fame Game win over the Jaguars, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow, who signed a two-year $32 million extension in June following a breakout 2021 season, joined fellow top pass catchers Davante Adams and Darren Waller (undisclosed), as well as quarterback Derek Carr, on the sideline for Thursday's exhibition opener. The fourth-year pro will still have three more preseason opportunities to ramp up for the regular season, beginning with a Sunday, Aug. 14 clash against the Vikings.

  • Inking two-year extension

    Renfrow and the Raiders agreed to terms on a two-year, $32 million contract extension Friday, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow was entering the final year of his rookie contract, and his new deal comes following an impressive Pro Bowl campaign in which he racked up 103 catches for 1,038 yards and nine touchdowns on 128 targets. The addition of Davante Adams to Las Vegas' wide receiver corps pairs Renfrow with another of the league's premier route runners. Tight end Darren Waller completes Derek Carr's top receiving trio, and his contract may be next up for the Raiders to address.

  • Makes eight catches

    Renfrow caught eight passes for 58 yards on 11 targets against Cincinnati on Saturday.

    Analysis: The Bengals really made Renfrow a focus of their defensive game plan, making it difficult for the slot receiver to generate his usual level of yardage per target. While Renfrow's season ends with a bit of a thud in this playoff loss, it was a highly impressive breakout season overall for the third-year wideout. Even if he's mostly a slot specialist, Renfrow produced in 2021 at a level that will compel the Raiders to give him a near three-down workload going forward.

  • Scores twice in OT win

    Renfrow caught four of five targets for 13 yards and two touchdowns while rushing once for a four-yard loss in Sunday's 35-32 overtime win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: The Chargers expended extra resources to bottle up the Raiders' top wideout, which helps explain such a low yardage total. Thankfully for his fantasy managers, two of the times Renfrow was able to break free of tight coverage resulted in touchdowns. The 25-year-old experienced a breakout campaign in 2021, finishing with 103 receptions for 1,038 yards and nine touchdowns while playing in all 17 regular-season contests. Expect Renfrow to remain one of Las Vegas' top offensive options heading into…read more

  • Returns to form

    Renfrow recorded seven receptions on nine targets for 76 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Colts.

    Analysis: Renfrow had seen a significant decline in volume across his last two games, combining to record only eight targets. However, he bounced back in Sunday's win -- though he was still out-targeted by Zay Jones -- posting his seventh performance with at least seven receptions on the campaign. The highlight came on an 11-yard touchdown reception early in the fourth quarter, though it also appeared that he had a 48-yard touchdown later in the game that was ultimately overturned on review.

  • Finds end zone in win

    Renfrow caught all three of his targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 17-13 win over the Broncos.

    Analysis: The three targets represented the lowest volume of the season for Renfrow, but he still put together a solid fantasy performance thanks to a 10-yard TD reception in the second quarter. The slot receiver is 51 yards shy of his first career 1,000-yard campaign and eight catches short of 100, milestones he'll look to reach in Week 17 against the Colts.

  • Just three catches in Week 15

    Renfrow caught three of five passes for 32 yards in Monday's 16-14 win over the Browns.

    Analysis: Renfrow came back down to earth after catching 30 passes over the previous three games, as the Browns made a concerted effort to cover him and make other Raiders receivers beat them. Both of the incomplete passes thrown Renfrow's way were end-zone targets. Expect him to regain a larger role Week 16 against the Broncos.

  • Raiders-Browns moved to Monday

    Renfrow and the Raiders will no longer play the Browns on Saturday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Monday at 5 p.m. ET.

    Analysis: Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within the Cleveland organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, the Browns will restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. Assuming the Week 15 game is played Monday as planned, Renfrow and Las Vegas will face a quick turnaround for the Week 16 contest versus the Broncos, which is still expected to be played Sunday, Dec. 26 as scheduled.

  • Tremendous volume continues

    Renfrow recorded 13 receptions on 14 targets for 117 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 48-9 loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Renfrow was the lone bright spot for the Las Vegas offense, and he racked up a career-high number of targets and receptions. As has been the case, he didn't do his damage deep, instead settling into soft spots in the defense underneath. Renfrow has now logged at least seven catches in six of his last seven games while also topping 100 receiving yards in each of his last three contests. Renfrow capped his performance with a four-yard touchdown, the Raiders lone trip to the end zone on the day.

  • Tops century mark again

    Renfrow caught nine of 10 targets for 102 yards in Sunday's 17-15 loss to Washington.

    Analysis: The third-year slot man continues to reap the benefits of being the only healthy receiving option Derek Carr trusts, as Renfrow hit triple digits in yards for the second straight game. Even if Darren Waller (knee) is able to return to action, Renfrow should remain very busy in his new No. 1 role against Kansas City in Week 14.

    Renfrow caught eight of nine targets for 134 yards in a 36-33 overtime win over the Cowboys on Thanksgiving.

    Analysis: He also gained two yards on his only carry. Renfrow was Derek Carr's favorite target on the day, especially once tight end Darren Waller (knee) was forced to exit, and the third-year slot receiver not only set a season high in catches, he established a new single-game personal best in yards while also setting new career highs for receptions (64) and receiving yards (658) on the year, in only 11 games.

  • Four grabs in Sunday's loss

    Renfrow caught all four of his targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Bengals. He added five rushing yards on one carry.

    Analysis: The targets and receiving yards were season lows for the slot man, who has taken on a much bigger role in the Raiders' passing game in recent weeks, but the Las Vegas offense simply didn't see a lot of the ball on the afternoon. Renfrow will look to rebound in a Thanksgiving Day clash with the Cowboys.

  • Another solid PPR outing

    Renfrow (ankle) had seven receptions (nine targets) for 46 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 41-14 loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Renfrow paced the Raiders in targets and receptions while turning in a similar performance to last week's solid fantasy line. The talented slot man was limited during practice this week with an ankle injury, but he looked healthy despite the lopsided loss. Renfrow has been one of Derek Carr's favorite targets this season, and he should continue garnering a healthy amount of targets moving forward. The Bengals' 23rd-ranked pass defense is on tap for Week 11.

  • Logs full practice Thursday

    Renfrow (ankle) practiced fully Thursday, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow was limited Wednesday, but his return to a full practice Thursday sets the stage for the Raiders' slot man to suit up Sunday against the 5-4 Chiefs. Through eight games, Renfrow has maintained PPR utility by averaging 5.6 catches (on 7.5 targets) for 56 yards per game to go along with three TDs. This weekend, he'll square off against a Kansas City defense that has allowed an average of 259.7 yards per game via the air to date.

  • Limited by ankle issue

    Renfrow was limited at practice Wednesday due to an ankle injury, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow is tending the ankle issue after he played 45 of a possible 69 snaps in last Sunday's loss to the Giants, finishing the day with seven catches on nine targets for 49 yards and a touchdown. So far there's nothing to suggest that the Raiders' slot man is in danger of missing this weekend's game against Kansas City, but he'll presumably need to log a full practice by Friday in order to avoid an injury designation.

  • Racks up nine targets

    Renfrow recorded seven receptions on nine targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Giants.

    Analysis: Renfrow finished second on the team behind only Darren Waller in targets, though he was largely limited to short areas of the field. His only reception that went for double-digit yards came on the team's first offensive possession, which he also capped with a two-yard touchdown catch. Renfrow has now logged six or more receptions in five of eight games this season, including four of his last five contests.

    Renfrow caught seven of eight targets for 58 yards in Sunday's 33-22 win over the Eagles.

    Analysis: The slot receiver led Las Vegas in catches and targets, although Foster Moreau topped him by two yards for the team lead in that category. Renfrow has been a rock-solid PPR option to begin the season, hauling in at least five passes in six of seven games heading into the Raiders' Week 8 bye.

    Analysis: Renfrow posted season lows across the board in targets, receptions and receiving yardage while quarterback Derek Carr attempted just 27 total passes, as the Raiders played with a substantial lead for much of the second half. Renfrow's offensive snap share still eclipsed the 50-percent mark, and he'll continue handling work out of the slot Week 7 when Las Vegas hosts the Eagles.

    Analysis: Renfrow paced the Raiders in receptions and receiving yards while co-leading the team in targets on the afternoon. With no fewer than five catches in any game and a second straight six-reception tally Sunday, Renfrow is well on pace to comfortably exceed the career-best total of 56 receptions he managed in 2020. The Clemson product will look to continue churning out the production in a Week 6 road battle versus the Broncos.

  • Gets another touchdown

    Renfrow caught six of eight targets for 45 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 28-14 loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: Renfrow did his usual work on crisp routes underneath, with his touchdown coming on a 10-yard reception to begin the third quarter. That play gave Renfrow a score in consecutive contests, and the 25-year-old has now hauled in at least five passes in every game this season. Despite the presence of Pro Bowl tight end Darren Waller and lightning-quick deep threat Henry Ruggs, Renfrow remains a security blanket for Derek Carr, consistently helping the Raiders move the sticks.

    Renfrow caught five of seven targets for 57 yards Sunday in the Raiders' 26-17 win over the Steelers. He also returned two punts for 26 yards.

    Analysis: Renfrow has yet to find the end zone this season, but he's recorded 11 receptions for 127 yards on 16 targets through two weeks despite logging less than 30 offensive snaps in Pittsburgh on Sunday. The slot receiver is pacing the Raiders' WR corps in targets, and quarterback Derek Carr could be forced to rely on Renfrow even more often against the Dolphins in Week 3 as cornerbacks Xavien Howard and Byron Jones attempt to blanket Henry Ruggs and Bryan Edwards on the outside.

    Renfrow did not play in Saturday's 17-16 preseason win over the Rams as the Raiders also were without fellow wide receivers Henry Ruggs, Bryan Edwards and John Brown.

    Analysis: Renfrow's role is essentially solidified as the Raiders' primary slot receiver ahead of Week 1, so the team hasn't risked his health while a majority of the first stringers have been kept to the sideline through two preseason contests. The Clemson product impressed in a joint practice with the Rams last Wednesday, however, reportedly torching All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey on multiple occasions as The Athletic's Vic Tafur noted.

    Renfrow caught three passes for 24 yards on seven targets in Sunday's 32-31 win over the Broncos, bringing his season totals to 56 catches for 656 yards and two scores on 77 targets in 16 games. He also added 265 yards on 23 punt returns with a long of 32.

    Analysis: Renfrow's 56 receptions paced the Raiders wide receiver corps, which doesn't include tight end Darren Waller nearly doubling the slot man's totals with 107 catches (on 145 targets) of his own. Renfrow, who led the Raiders in red-zone receptions as a rookie, saw his touchdown count sliced in half this season, while the aforementioned Waller, as well as Nelson Agholor, combined for 17 trips to the end zone.

    Renfrow (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation for Saturday night's game against the Dolphins after practicing fully Wednesday and Thursday.

    Analysis: Renfrow, who was forced out of last Thursday's game against the Chargers after just 13 snaps on offense, thus has gained medical clearance to suit up this weekend.

That's noteworthy given that Waller entered the game with 83 targets on the season, more than double the amount of Las Vegas' No. 2 option, Renfrow (41).

    Analysis: His 53-yard grab in the third quarter set up a Darren Waller touchdown and wound up making Renfrow the Raiders' leader in receiving yards on the afternoon. The second-year slot receiver isn't getting a lot of volume, seeing four targets or less in five of eight games so far this year, but he's earned the trust of Derek Carr.

The second-year pro has also averaged 50.2 receiving yards per game during that span, hauling in his TDs in Weeks 3 and 8. Renfrow, Henry Ruggs and Darren Waller were the only Raiders to garner at least four targets Sunday, and the young pass-catching trio will now shift focus to a Week 9 intra-divisional clash against the Chargers.

    Renfrow caught his only target for 42 yards in Sunday's 40-32 win over the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Renfrow's 42-yard reception on third and long in the fourth quarter was crucial for the Raiders' upset victory, but the one-catch performance disappointed fantasy managers after he racked up 17 total targets in Weeks 3 and 4. Fellow receiver Bryan Edwards (ankle/foot) has a chance to return Week 7 following the team's bye, but his potential availability might not have much of an effect on Renfrow's workload in the slot.

  • Hauls in five passes

    Renfrow caught five of eight targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Aside from an acrobatic 37-yard reception down the sideline late in the contest, Renfrow was held in check despite the absences of fellow receivers Henry Ruggs (knee/hamstring) and Bryan Edwards (ankle). Nonetheless, quarterback Derek Carr has thrown a total of 17 passes at Renfrow throughout the Raiders' past two games, and the slot man could continue to see additional looks if the aforementioned rookie duo remains sidelined Week 5 at Kansas City.

  • Opportunity knocks Week 4

    Renfrow looks in line to lead the Raiders' receiving corps during Sunday's game against the Bills, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow is the leading candidate to serve as Las Vegas' No. 1 receiver with Henry Ruggs (hamstring) doubtful and Bryan Edwards (ankle) ruled out. Nelson Agholor and Zay Jones also stand to start in three-wide sets, assuming Ruggs sits out, while Josh Jacobs and Darren Waller could take on even more focal roles on offense. Renfrow had a team-high 84 yards and a touchdown against New England in Week 3, and he should get the opportunity to log another productive day versus Buffalo.

  • Finds end zone in loss

    Renfrow caught six of nine targets for a team-high 84 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-20 loss to New England.

    Analysis: Renfrow appeared to have scored a 27-yard touchdown late in the first half but was ruled down on the 1-yard line. He got his touchdown after all from 13 yards out with 1:54 left in the fourth quarter and was the only Raiders receiver to top 50 yards. Darren Waller (knee) and Josh Jacobs (hip) played through injuries, while Henry Ruggs (knee/hamstring) sat this one out and Bryan Edwards left the game with an ankle injury, so Renfrow is Las Vegas' healthiest regular skill position player heading…read more

  • Big catches on MNF

    Renfrow caught all three of his targets for 37 receiving yards during Monday's 34-24 win against the Saints.

    Analysis: Renfrow recorded two receptions that spanned 15-plus yards, with one coming on the Raiders' second touchdown drive of the game in the late-second quarter, and the other on Las Vegas' TD drive in the fourth quarter. Tight end Darren Waller completely dominated the pass-catching workload in attracting 16 targets on the night, while not another Raider finished above three. Even with Derek Carr having thrown to a 73.5 percent completion rate and a 4:0 TD:INT, Renfrow has so far been a low-volume…read more

  • Held quiet

    Renfrow hauled in two receptions on two targets for a total of 21 yards in Week 1 against Carolina.

    Analysis: Renfrow was overshadowed by a number of options in the passing attack, including both Henry Ruggs and Darren Waller. He did manage to haul in both of his opportunities, one for 11 yards and the other for 10. Without volume, Renfrow lacks fantasy upside due to his usage primarily in short-yardage pass attempts. He and the Raiders will square off against the Saints in Week 2.

  • Still the slot man

    Though the Raiders added a pair of wide receivers in the 2020 draft, Tashan Reed of the Athletic believes that Renfrow still will man the slot in the team's offense this season.

    Analysis: The Raiders selected Henry Ruggs the first round and Bryan Edwards in Round 3 of this past April's draft with an eye toward adding offensive playmakers to complement returnees like Renfrow, Tyrell Williams and Zay Jones, as well as free-agent addition Nelson Agholor. Renfrow, who finished the 2019 season with 49 catches for 605 yards and four TDs in 13 games, will have plenty of competition for targets this year, but as long as he's the team's preferred slot option, he should be able to retain…read more

  • Continues late-season emergence

    Renfrow caught six of nine targets for 102 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 16-15 loss to the Broncos.

    Analysis: With the Raiders shorthanded at receiver, Renfrow went off Sunday and nearly gave the Raiders a win in their final game representing Oakland. Down a score with only seconds remaining, the 5-foot-9 Renfrow high-pointed a 28-yard pass from Derek Carr and wrestled it away mid-air from Isaac Yiadom. He scored three plays later. The rookie receiver showed a lot of promise down the stretch with back-to-back games of over 100 yards and a touchdown to end the season, his only two 100-yard games of the…read more

  • Tops 100 yards

    Renfrow hauled in seven of nine targets for 107 yards and a touchdown in the team's Week 16 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: Renfrow returned from a rib injury to play for the first time in three contests. He showed few signs of rust, as he caught a short slant pass over the middle and outran the Chargers defense for a 56-yard touchdown on the Raiders' fourth play from scrimmage. Though he largely worked underneath after his big play, Renfrow showed the ability to rack up targets while also gaining yards after the catch. He'll look to close his rookie campaign on a strong note in Week 17 against the Broncos.

  • Set to return in Week 16

    Renfrow (rib) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Chargers after practicing fully Friday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow, who has missed the Raiders' last three games, is slated to re-join the team's pass-catching and punt return mix Week 16. Prior to suffering his rib injury, Renfrow made a fantasy mark in PPR formats while operating as the Raiders' slot man, compiling a 36-296-2 stat line through 11 contests. He'll look to pick up where he left off against a Chargers squad that has dropped four if its last five outings

    Analysis: Renfrow's reps were capped for the second straight day, but he told Scott Bair of NBC Sports Bay Area after the session that he expects to put an end to a three-game absence Sunday versus the Chargers. If Renfrow's prediction comes to pass and he suits up this weekend, he'll likely be forced to play through some pain while he deals with the residual effects of a fractured rib. The Raiders will see what Renfrow is able to do at Friday's practice before assessing his odds of playing in Los…read more

    Renfrow (ribs) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Renfrow concluded last week as a limited participant in practice, but he ultimately missed a third consecutive game in the Raiders' loss to the Jaguars. The rookie fifth-round pick said Monday that he expects he'll be ready for this weekend's tilt with the Chargers, though he'll likely need to advance to full participant by Friday to ensure his availability.

    Renfrow (ribs) is expected to play Week 16 against the Chargers, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow missed the last three games after being injured in Week 12, but it appears his absence is about to come to an end. Renfrow was able to practice on a limited basis last Thursday and "looked great," so as long as he's able to do at least the same this week, he should be good to go for Week 16.

    Renfrow (ribs) won't play Sunday against the Jaguars, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: With Renfrow -- who last played in Week 12 -- still out, Tyrell Williams and Zay Jones should headline the Raiders' wide-receiver corps once again. Keelan Doss and Rico Gafford are also in the mix for added snaps.

    Renfrow (ribs) returned to a limited practice Thursday, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Offensive coordinator Greg Olson noted that Renfrow went through individual drills Thursday with no contact. In doing so the receiver "looked great," according to Olson. "It's good to have him out on the field. Brought a little juice to the offense. Very excited to see him out there." Friday's injury report should give us a better idea of Renfrow's chances of being cleared to play Sunday against the Jaguars.

    Renfrow (ribs) is practicing Thursday, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow has missed two straight games while nursing a broken rib and a punctured lung, but he appears to be trending toward a return to the field against Jacksonville on Sunday. If the rookie is able to log a full practice session Thursday and/or Friday, he can be expected to reprise his usual role as the No. 2 option in Oakland's wide receiver corps behind Tyrell Williams.

  • Trending toward playing Week 15

    Coach Jon Gruden is optimistic Renfrow (ribs) will play in Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Vincent Bonsignore of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Renfrow has missed the last two games after sustaining a broken rib and punctured lung in Week 12's loss to the Jets, but it appears he's recovered enough to be on track for a return. The rookie was starting to hit his stride in the five games preceding his injury, recording 22 receptions for 281 yards and two scores, and he was targeted in the red zone five times in that stretch. Renfrow's practice status should still be monitored during the week, and a full-speed session would extinguish any…read more

  • Out again Week 14

    Renfrow (rib) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Titans.

    Analysis: Renfrow was always expected to miss multiple games after coming out of the Raiders' Nov. 24 loss to the Jets with a broken rib and a punctured lung, so his absence for Week 14 comes as little surprise after he was unable to practice Wednesday through Friday. While Renfrow is out, Zay Jones and Keelan Doss should continue to benefit from increased snaps alongside top wideout Tyrell Williams in either two- or three-receiver formations.

    Analysis: Though Gruden didn't to go into the specifics of the rookie's injury or relay a recovery timetable, he did acknowledge that Renfrow's season may over. Meanwhile, NFL Network reported that the 2019 fifth-rounder suffered a broken rib and punctured lung in Sunday's loss to the Jets. In Renfrow's absence, Gruden indicated that the likes of Keelan Doss and Zay Jones or tight ends Darren Waller and Derek Carrier would be candidates to pick up added snaps out of the slot.

  • Has broken rib, punctured lung

    Renfrow was diagnosed with a broken rib and a punctured lung after exiting Sunday's 34-3 loss to the Jets, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The Raiders have yet to confirm the extent of Renfrow's injury, nor has the team provided a timeline on his return, but the rookie appears likely to miss additional game action. Renfrow's health setback comes at an unfortunate time, as he had developed into a trusted option underneath for quarterback Derek Carr in recent weeks. Over his past five games, Renfrow had garnered at least four targets in each contest and totaled 22 catches for 281 yards and two touchdowns.

    Renfrow is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Jets due to a rib injury.

    Analysis: Renfrow exited Sunday's contest midway through the third quarter. The rookie caught three of five targets for 31 yards before leaving the field. As long as Renfrow remains sidelined, Trevor Davis and Marcell Ateman could see increased depth roles.

  • Compiles 66 receiving yards

    Renfrow caught five of six targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Bengals.

    Analysis: Renfrow matched tight end Darren Waller for the team lead in receptions Sunday, and the former has now caught at least four passes in four consecutive games. Renfrow logged less than 50 percent of the Raiders' offensive snaps for the first time since Week 7, but the rookie still posted his second-best performance of the season from a yardage standpoint.

  • Solid effort in win

    Renfrow secured four of five targets for 42 yards in the Raiders' 26-24 win over the Chargers on Thursday.

    Analysis: Renfrow continued to build on his recent momentum, co-leading the Raiders in receptions and checking in just two yards behind Jalen Richard for the top spot in that category. The rookie has gotten past the meager yardage tallies that plagued him over his first several games, as he's now posted between 42 and 88 in the last three contests. Renfrow did see his modest two-game touchdown streak snapped Thursday, but he'll look to get back in the end zone against the Bengals in Week 11 a week from…read more

  • Scores for second straight game

    Renfrow caught six of seven targets for 54 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 31-24 win over the Lions.

    Analysis: Renfrow led the team in targets while posting a new career high in receptions. He averaged just 9.0 yards per catch, but he overcame his lack of yardage with a nine-yard touchdown reception to win the game in the final minutes. Renfrow now has touchdowns in back-to-back games, while also contributing 142 receiving yards during that span. He'll look to continue his ascent in Thursday's home matchup against the Chargers.
