Top Trevor Etienne News

  • Panthers' Trevor Etienne: Green light to make 2026 debut

    Etienne (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Etienne was activated from injured reserve Saturday, and the second-year running back has been cleared to make his 2026 debut Sunday after missing the first four games of the regular season due to an ankle injury. He could operate as the Panthers' RB2 behind Chuba Hubbard, given the absences of both AJ Dillon (ankle) and Jonathon Brooks (abdomen, IR).

  • Panthers' Trevor Etienne: Activated from injured reserve

    The Panthers activated Etienne (ankle) from injured reserve Saturday.

    Etienne remains listed as questionable for Sunday's date with the Eagles, but he appears to be positioned to make his 2026 debut after missing the first four games of the season ahead of Carolina's Week 5 bye. With AJ Dillon (ankle) ruled out and Jonathon Brooks (abdomen) on injured reserve, Etienne would provide needed backfield depth behind Chuba Hubbard.

  • Panthers' Trevor Etienne: Questionable for Week 6

    Etienne (ankle) is listed as questionablefor Sunday's game against the Eagles.

    Etienne was a full practice participant all week, while AJ Dillon (ankle) was absent and has already been ruled out for Sunday. Etienne might've taken over the No. 2 RB role even if Dillon had stayed healthy, so it remains to be seen how that play out if/when both are available at the same time. The Panthers will need to activate Etienne from injured reserve by Saturday evening to have him available for Sunday's game. If they don't do that, they'll need to look to the practice squad for depth behind Chuba Hubbard.

  • Panthers' Trevor Etienne: Logs full practice Wednesday

    Etienne (ankle) was a full participant at practice Wednesday.

    The Panthers designated Etienne for return to practice from their injured reserve list Tuesday, and it seems like there's a chance he could be officially activated for Week 6. With free-agent acquisition AJ Dillon also tending to an ankle issue and Jonathon Brooks (abdomen) on IR, a significant role could be in store for Etienne come Sunday if he does suit up at Philadelphia.

  • Panthers' Trevor Etienne: Designated to return

    The Panthers announced Tuesday that Etienne (ankle) is designated to return from injured reserve.

    The Panthers have opened Etienne's 21-day practice window. The 22-year-old will add much-needed depth to the backfield behind Chubba Hubbard and AJ Dillon, while Jonathan Brooks (abdomen) remains on injured reserve.

  • Panthers' Trevor Etienne: Expected back after Week 5 bye

    Head coach Dave Canales said Etienne (ankle) will "for sure" be back following the Panthers' Week 5 bye, Mike Kaye of ESPN.com reports.

    Etienne opened the season on injured reserve and is eligible to return in Week 6 at the earliest. Getting Etienne back would give the Panthers another backfield piece while Jonathon Brooks (abdomen) recovers from core muscle surgery. Etienne will likely see most of his playing time on special teams.

  • Panthers' Trevor Etienne: Placed on IR, designated to return

    Etienne (ankle) was placed on injured reserve by the Panthers on Sunday with a designation to return, Darin Gantt of the team's official website reports.

    Etienne suffered an ankle injury in Friday's preseason finale versus Houston, and he will now be forced to miss at least four contests while on IR. The running back was expected to operate as a depth option behind Chuba Hubbard (hamstring) and Jonathon Brooks to open the season, so in his absence, AJ Dillon will likely slot in as the No. 3 option. Additionally, Etienne has operated as the team's primary return specialist on both kicks and punts, so Carolina will have to find replacements there for the time being.

  • Panthers' Trevor Etienne: Dealing with ankle issue

    Etienne (ankle) is being evaluated to diagnose the extent of his injury, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports.

    Etienne rushed one time for two yards in Friday's preseason finale against the Texans. The running back is set to be the starting kick and punt returner for the Panthers, as well as the primary depth behind the split backfield of Chuba Hubbard (hamstring) and Jonathon Brooks. If Etienne's injury requires him to miss the Week 1 game against the Bears, AJ Dillon will likely be the No. 3 running back, while Jimmy Horn and David Moore could return kicks and punts.

  • Panthers' Trevor Etienne: Draws start in preseason opener

    Etienne started the Panthers' 33-30 preseason win over the Cardinals on Thursday, rushing four times for 12 yards and bringing in his only target for minus-1 yard.

    With Chuba Hubbard and Jonathon Brooks both getting the night off, Etienne was the first back on the field for the Panthers and logged touches on each of the first three drives. He netted 12 yards via back-to-back runs on Carolina's third possession, but he was ultimately outperformed by both Miles Davis and veteran AJ Dillon after exiting the game. Etienne appeared in all 17 regular-season games as a rookie in 2025 and contributed 107 scrimmage yards, but he also added value on special teams with 733 kickoff-return yards and 163 yards on punt returns. Etienne will continue attempting to make a case for a role behind Hubbard and Brooks in Carolina's second preseason game, which unfolds Saturday, Aug. 15 on the road against the Bills.

  • Panthers' Trevor Etienne: Behind Brooks on depth chart?

    Etienne appears to be behind Chuba Hubbard and Jonathon Brooks on Carolina's depth chart, competing for a backup role while contributing on special teams, according to Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer.

    A 2025 fourth-round pick, Etienne took just 23 touches on offense during his rookie season, getting far more work on special teams -- 20 punt returns for 163 yards, 31 kick returns for 733 yards while playing in all 17 regular-season games. He was one of the least effective return specialists in the league, so he'll need to compete for the kick and punt return jobs this summer. Perhaps there's also a competition for the No. 2 RB role behind Hubbard, though fantasy ADPs and early beat-writer reports both peg Brooks as a strong favorite. Behind Hubbard, Brooks and Etienne, the Panthers have veteran journeyman AJ Dillon and UDFAs Anthony Tyus and Miles Davis.

  • Panthers' Trevor Etienne: Primary return man in rookie season

    Etienne rushed the ball 20 times for 94 yards and caught all three of his targets for 13 yards across 17 regular-season games in 2025. Additionally, he recorded 733 kickoff return yards and 163 punt return yards.

    The 2025 fourth-round pick from Georgia was buried behind Rico Dowdle and Chuba Hubbard in the Panthers' backfield, so it's no surprise he didn't see much work on offense as a rookie. However, Etienne established himself as Carolina's top return man, finishing the regular season 19th in return yards in the NFL. While Dowdle is set to hit unrestricted free agency, the Panthers will still have Hubbard and 2024 second-round pick Jonathon Brooks (knee) under contract next season, so the backfield could remain crowded, but Etienne's special-teams value should at least keep him in the mix.

  • Panthers' Trevor Etienne: No touches in Week 17

    Etienne played three of the Panthers' 52 offensive snaps and tallied 91 kick-return yards during Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Seahawks.

    Etienne hasn't received a carry since the Panthers' Week 11 win over the Falcons, playing just nine offensive snaps over the team's last five games. The Georgia product has operated as Carolina's top return man this season, recording 733 punt-return yards and 160 kick-return yards across 16 appearances. Expect the rookie running back to contribute primarily on special teams while Rico Dowdle and Chuba Hubbard handle the Panthers' backfield duties in the Week 18 matchup against the Buccaneers on Saturday.

  • Panthers' Trevor Etienne: Limited to special teams Sunday

    Etienne received no offensive touches but tallied 33 punt-return yards during Sunday's 23-20 win over the Buccaneers.

    The 21-year-old has gone without an offensive touch in five of the Panthers' last seven games, suggesting he's firmly behind both Rico Dowdle and Chuba Hubbard in the team's backfield. Etienne has now tallied 642 kick-return yards and 160 punt-return yards while appearing in all 15 of Carolina's contests this season. He's expected to remain the team's top return man in the Week 17 matchup against the Seahawks.

  • Panthers' Trevor Etienne: No offensive snaps in loss

    Etienne didn't play a single offensive snap but logged 25 kick-return yards and 16 punt-return yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Saints.

    The rookie running back from Georgia has now gone without an offensive snap in three of the Panthers' last five games. He's primarily contributed as Carolina's top return man this season, recording 642 kickoff-return yards and 127 punt-return yards across 14 appearances. Etienne is expected to remain a depth piece in the Panthers' backfield while continuing to contribute on special teams in the Week 16 matchup against the Buccaneers.
