Finds practice squad spot
Saunders was picked up by the Falcons' practice squad Thursday, Scott Bair of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Saunders was waived by the Panthers on Saturday after failing to secure a depth spot in a crowded wide receiver room. He'll stay in the NFC South and look to make an impression in Atlanta.

Waived by Panthers
Saunders was waived by the Panthers on Saturday, Darin Gantt of the team's official website reports.
Analysis: Saunders was competing against a crowded wide receiver room in Carolina for the chance to make it on its final 53-man roster. He ultimately came up short, which means he will need to look for a new opportunity elsewhere unless the team offers him a spot on its practice squad. The 26-year-old has been with the Panthers' organization since signing with the team as an undrafted free agent in 2021.

Signs new contract with Panthers
Carolina signed Saunders to a reserve/future contract Monday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Saunders didn't appear in a single contest during the 2022 season, though he did play in two games with the Panthers back in 2021. The young wideout will now get a chance to continue his development with the team.

Joins Carolina's practice squad
The Panthers signed Saunders to their practice squad Thursday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
Analysis: Saunders was waived ahead of Tuesday's 53-man roster deadline but has returned to the team on a practice-squad deal. The undrafted wideout out of Ohio State dealt with a quadriceps strain for much of August but returned to action during the Panthers' preseason finale, operating mostly as a kick returner. He made his NFL debut last year with Carolina, catching both of his targets for 11 yards.

Let go by Carolina
The Panthers waived Saunders on Tuesday.
Analysis: Saunders dealt with a quadriceps strain for much of August but returned to action during the Panthers' preseason finale, operating mostly as a kick returner. The Ohio State wideout appeared in two games for Carolina last year, catching both of his targets for 11 yards.

Back in returner role Friday
Saunders (quadriceps) returned one punt for 23 yards during the Panthers' preseason game Friday.
Analysis: Saunders returned to the field just under three weeks after being sidelined with a quadriceps strain picked up in early August. The 25-year-old's participation just ahead of Carolina's final roster cuts Tuesday should help his chances to secure a spot over fellow returners Shi Smith and Andre Roberts.

Out 3-4 weeks with quad strain
Panthers head coach Matt Rhule said Wednesday that Saunders has been diagnosed with a quadriceps strain and will be sidelined for three to four weeks, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
Analysis: Given the return timetable, Saunders likely won't be available for any of the Panthers' preseason contests, which will make it extremely difficult for him to land a spot on the initial 53-man roster. The former Ohio State wideout was elevated to the Panthers' active roster for Weeks 16 and 18 last year, catching both of his targets for 11 yards.

Dealing with leg strain
Panthers head coach Matt Rhule said Tuesday that Saunders is dealing with a lower leg strain, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The extent and severity of the issue remains unclear, but any prolonged absence for the former Ohio State product will make it increasingly difficult to land a spot on the initial 53-man roster. Saunders was elevated to the Panthers' active roster for Weeks 16 and 18 last year, catching both of his targets for 11 yards.
