  • Panthers' Lathan Ransom: Recovered from thumb injury

    Ransom (thumb) was a full participant at Wednesday's practice.

    Ransom suffered a thumb injury in Carolina's surprising win over the Rams on Nov. 30, but he seems to have recovered during the Panthers' Week 14 bye. With Tre'von Moehrig available after having returned from a one-game suspension, Ransom will likely be relegated to a backup role Sunday against the Saints.

  • Panthers' Lathan Ransom: Dealing with thumb injury

    Head coach Dave Canales told reporters Monday that Ransom sustained a thumb injury in Sunday's 31-28 win over the Rams, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    With Tre'von Moehrig suspended for the Week 13 contest, Ransom drew the start and performed phenomenally, recording 11 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks. However, it now appears he's sustained a thumb injury in the process, and the Panthers are still looking into various treatment options and timelines. Carolina has a Week 14 bye, which may give the rookie safety enough time to recover ahead of the Week 15 matchup against the Saints.

  • Panthers' Lathan Ransom: Likely moving into starting role

    Ransom is expected to start at safety in place of Tre'von Moehrig (suspension) against the Rams on Sunday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Ransom underwent a procedure on his hand earlier this month, but he seems to be back to full health now. The rookie has recently played about one-third of Carolina's defensive snaps, but he'll likely take on a much larger role Sunday. Moehrig's suspension is for just one game, so Ransom's time as a starter could be short-lived.

  • Panthers' Lathan Ransom: Trending up for Week 12

    Ransom (hand) was a full participant in practice Thursday.

    Ransom underwent a hand procedure on Wednesday of Week 11 prep and didn't practice at all during the week. He consequently missed Sunday's win over Atlanta, but his ability to practice in full Thursday suggests he'll be able to return to action Monday against San Francisco. Ransom has been a rotational defensive back during his rookie campaign while also working as a core special-teamer.

  • Panthers' Lathan Ransom: Won't suit up at Atlanta

    Ransom (hand) is out for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Ransom will sit out his first game of the year in Week 11 after undergoing a procedure to address a hand issue. His absence may open up a few snaps in the secondary for Demani Richardson on Sunday.

  • Panthers' Lathan Ransom: Undergoes hand procedure

    Ransom (hand) did not practice Wednesday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Per Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer, Ransom underwent a hand procedure and is considered day-to-day. It's unclear if he has a chance to suit up for Sunday's matchup against Atlanta, and he'll likely need to turn in some level of practice participation in the next two days.

  • Panthers' Lathan Ransom: Fully participates in practice

    Ransom (illness) was a full participant in practice Thursday.

    Ransom was limited in practice Wednesday but appears to be on track to play after recording a full practice Thursday. The 23-year-old has served as Carolina's top reserve safety though nine games this season, accounting for 26 total tackles and one forced fumble over 294 total snaps (179 on defense and 115 on special teams).

  • Panthers' Lathan Ransom: Logs limited session Wednesday

    Ransom (illness) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Ransom has served as one of Carolina's top reserve safeties in his first nine NFL games, recording 26 total tackles and one forced fumble over 294 total snaps (179 on defense, 115 on special teams). The rookie from Ohio State likely needs to upgrade to full practice Thursday or Friday to avoid an injury designation for the Week 10 matchup against the Saints.

  • Panthers' Lathan Ransom: Scooped by Panthers

    The Panthers selected Ransom in the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 122nd overall.

    Ransom initially planned to enter the draft last year before a foot injury kept him at Ohio State for another season. The physical safety excelled in his fifth year, tallying 76 tackles, 9.0 tackles for loss and an interception to earn Second Team All-American honors and help the Buckeyes win a National Championship. Ransom looks like a strong run defender in the NFL with room to develop his pass-coverage abilities. The Panthers lack depth in their secondary, meaning Ransom could make an impact sooner than later.
