Top LaBryan Ray News

  • Panthers' LaBryan Ray: Week-to-week with ankle injury

    Ray is considered week-to-week due to an ankle issue, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Per Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer, Ray is dealing with a mild high-ankle sprain. While the defensive end is unlikely to suit up for Saturday's second preseason contest against Houston, the Panthers hope he can return in time to face the Steelers on Thursday, Aug. 21. Ray is on the roster bubble, so it will be imperative for him to heal up as soon as possible so that he can make his case for a spot on the team.

  • Panthers' LaBryan Ray: Returns to Carolina

    Ray signed his exclusive rights free-agent tender with the Panthers on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    The 27-year-old defensive end from Alabama will remain in Carolina after spending the first two seasons of his career with the Panthers. With Derrick Brown (knee) sidelined for the majority of 2024, Ray played a career-high 591 defensive snaps, recording 41 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, across 16 regular-season games. Now that he's inked a deal to remain a Panther, Ray is expected to compete for a depth role on the defensive line as the summer unfolds.

  • Panthers' LaBryan Ray: Thrust into starting role in 2024

    Ray recorded 41 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, over 16 games in 2024.

    Ray saw increased opportunities with the Panthers' first-team defense following Derrick Brown's (knee) season-ending injury in the Week 1 loss to the Saints, starting nine of the Panthers remaining 16 regular-season games. He played at least 40 percent of Carolina's defensive snaps in all of his appearances this season, setting a career high in total tackles and also logging the first sack of his young career. Ray is an exclusive-rights free agent this offseason, meaning he cannot negotiate with other teams if the Panthers extend a qualifying offer. If the 27-year-old returns to Carolina in 2025, he's likely to revert to a reserve role behind Brown.

  • Panthers' LaBryan Ray: Will play vs. Commanders

    Ray (ankle/knee) is active for Sunday's game against Washington, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Ray has been limited in practice all week due to knee and ankle injuries, but he will play through them Sunday. Ray has accrued 11 tackles (seven solo), including 1.0 sacks, across five regular-season games.

  • Panthers' LaBryan Ray: Dealing with injuries

    Ray (ankle/knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Ray played 36 total snaps (31 defensive and five on special teams) and failed to record a stat in the Panthers' Week 6 loss to the Falcons, but it appears he picked up a pair of injuries in the process. The Alabama product's participation Thursday and Friday will be the best indication on whether he can play in Sunday's matchup against the Commanders.

  • Panthers' LaBryan Ray: Left off injury report

    Ray (concussion) wasn't listed on the Panthers' injury report Wednesday.

    Ray was carted off the field in an early-August practice due to a heat-related issue. He'll be available for Week 1 against the Falcons and will provide depth behind Shy Tuttle and Nick Thurman at nose tackle.

  • Panthers' LaBryan Ray: Carted off field

    Ray was carted off the field during practice Saturday due to a heat-related issue, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Ray is expected to be fine according to the team, Kaye added. The 25-year-old joined Carolina in July after he was let go by the Patriots in May. He'll now focus on getting healthy in order to return to the practice field.

  • LaBryan Ray: Inks deal

    Ray (undisclosed) signed a reserve/future contract with the Patriots on Tuesday.

    Ray landed on the Patriots' practice squad IR in late October due to an undisclosed injury. His new deal with the team indicates his health is back up to par, and he will look to make an impression with the club during the offseason.

  • LaBryan Ray: Lands on practice squad IR

    Ray (undisclosed) was placed on the Patriots' practice squad injured reserve list Wednesday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Ray has yet to make his NFL debut, and it appears he'll have to wait a bit longer. By moving the rookie to the practice squad injured reserve list, it will open up another spot on the team's 16-man practice squad.
