Cam Grandy - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Signs extension with Cincinnati Grandy (chest) and the Bengals agreed on a one-year contract extension Monday.

Impact Grandy appeared in five contests during the regular season, catching both of his targets for seven yards while playing 28 snaps on offense. With Mike Gesicki and Drew Sample both under contract for 2026, Grandy will compete to operate as the team's No. 3 option at tight end next season.

Inactive for season finale Grandy (chest) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns.

Impact After not practicing Wednesday or Thursday, Grandy logged a full session Friday and was listed as questionable. However, that wasn't enough to be cleared for game action, and he'll miss a second consecutive contest to end the campaign. The undrafted tight end will finish his second NFL season with two receptions for seven yards across 28 offensive snaps.

Questionable for Sunday Grandy (chest) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Browns.

Impact Grandy was able to upgrade to a full participant in Friday's practice after missing consecutive sessions earlier in the week. The upgrade in participation is a great sign for the tight end's chances of suiting up for Sunday's contest as a reserve option behind Mike Gesicki, Noah Fant, Drew Sample and Tanner Hudson.

Doesn't practice Wednesday Grandy (chest) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Grandy has been unable to practice or play since sustaining a chest injury during the Bengals' Week 16 win over the Dolphins. He'll likely have to return to practice in at least a limited capacity over the next two days to have a realistic chance of playing in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Browns.

Out for Sunday Grandy (chest) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

Impact The 26-year-old didn't practice all week after sustaining a chest injury in the Week 16 win over the Dolphins, so it's no surprise that he'll be sidelined Sunday. While Grandy is out for Week 17, expect Cincinnati's tight-end room to consist of Mike Gesicki, Noah Fant (ankle, questionable), Drew Sample and Tanner Hudson.

DNP with chest issue Grandy (chest) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Grandy left the second half of last Sunday's win over the Dolphins due to an injury to his left collarbone. The tight end will have two more chances to attempt to upgrade his practice participation to attempt to dodge an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals. If Grandy cannot upgrade his participation, he will likely be ruled out ahead of Sunday's game.

Signs one-year extension The Bengals inked Grandy to a one-year contract extension Tuesday.

Impact Grandy suited up for eight regular-season games as an undrafted rookie with Cincinnati, in which span he secured all five of his targets for 28 yards. Down the stretch, the former practice-squad player managed to carve out a consistent depth role. He's now earned an opportunity to continue his development in the Bengals' tight end corps heading into the 2025 season.

JANUARY 21, 2025 • BENGALS.COM

Small late-season contributions Grandy caught one pass for nine yards in the season finale against the Steelers, giving him five catches on the season.

Impact The former practice squad player was elevated first in Week 10 against the Ravens and essentially served as a fourth tight end for a Bengals team that used their tight ends a lot more than they had in previous seasons.

Goes without target in Week 14 Grandy played 17 of the Bengals' 71 snaps on offense and went without a target in Monday's 27-20 win over the Cowboys.

Impact One of four tight ends active for Cincinnati, Grandy finished third in the group in playing time, ahead of Tanner Hudson (14 snaps) but behind Drew Sample (49) and Mike Gesicki (20). Grandy has drawn just one target across his 29 offensive snaps over his four games this season and will likely continue to have a muted role if all of Sample, Gesicki and Hudson stay healthy.

Signs to active roster The Bengals signed Grandy to their active roster Friday.

Impact Grandy made his first appearance of the season in Cincinnati's Week 10 loss to the Ravens, catching his lone target for no yards across 10 total snaps (four offensive and six on special teams). The Bengals now have five tight ends on their active roster following Grandy's signing Friday. He's expected to serve as a depth piece while also likely contributing on special teams in Cincinnati's Week 11 matchup against the Chargers.

Reverts to practice squad Grandy reverted to the Bengals' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Grandy was elevated to the Bengals' active roster Thursday and played 10 total snaps (four offensive and six on special teams) in Cincinnati's Week 10 loss to the Ravens, catching his only target for no yards. He could be elevated to the active roster again if the team's tight end room faces injuries later this season.

Will play vs. Ravens Grandy is active for Thursday night's game against Baltimore.

Impact Grandy signed with the Bengals in May as an undrafted free agent, and he was signed to the practice squad after he was unable to make the 53-man roster after training camp. Grandy was elevated from the practice squad, and he'll make his NFL regular-season debut serving as the Bengals' No. 4 tight end behind Mike Gesicki, Drew Sample and Tanner Hudson.

Will be available at Baltimore The Bengals elevated Grandy from their practice squad for Thursday's game against the Ravens.

Impact Grandy has yet to see regular-season action up to this point, but he might get a chance to make his debut in Week 10. If he does play Thursday, it wouldn't be surprising if it was primarily on special teams.

NOVEMBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Gets another opportunity Grandy signed with the Bengals' practice squad Wednesday.

Impact Grandy was waived Tuesday, but he'll now have the opportunity to continue developing in Cincinnati. The Illinois State product went undrafted in 2024, but showed skills as a pass catcher, recording 63 catches for 612 yards and three touchdowns in his final season there.

AUGUST 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to waivers The Bengals waived Grandy on Tuesday, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

Impact Grandy could be a candidate to continue his development in Cincinnati as a member of the practice squad, should he go unclaimed on waivers. The UDFA out of Illinois State showcased some upside as a pass-catching tight end during his final collegiate season, in which he put up a 63-612-3 statline through the air.
