Laviska Shenault Jr. - Page 4 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Leads team in receiving Shenault caught all four of his targets for 31 yards and rushed once for seven yards in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Seahawks.

Impact Shenault led Carolina in all major receiving categories, as starting wideouts DJ Moore and Terrace Marshall combined for just one catch for 18 yards. Although Shenault's production wasn't anything particularly special, he's grown into a more consistent role lately, garnering at least four touches in three of his last four outings. In an underwhelming passing attack, however, Shenault's overall stock remains restricted.

Gets three touches Shenault caught both of his targets for 19 yards and rushed once for two yards in Sunday's 23-10 win over the Broncos.

Impact Shenault trailed only starters DJ Moore and Terrace Marshall in snaps among Carolina's receivers, as teammate Shi Smith surprisingly didn't feature on offense at all. While Smith dealt with illness earlier in the week, the playing time distribution between he and Shenault could prove worthwhile to monitor once the Panthers return from their bye week.

Makes four grabs Shenault caught all four of his targets for seven yards in Sunday's 13-3 loss to the Ravens.

Impact Shenault played only 16 offensive snaps, contributing minimally after last week's 59 scrimmage yards and a touchdown. Despite his big-play ability, Shenault's usage isn't consistent enough to offer very dependable weekly value.

Scores in win Shenault caught three of four targets for 17 yards and rushed twice for 42 yards and a touchdown in Thursday night's 25-15 win over the Falcons.

Impact Shenault took a lateral 41 yards to the house for the first touchdown of the game. He ultimately played nearly 40 percent of Carolina's offensive snaps, marking a big increase from Week 9 and trailing only starting wideouts DJ Moore and Terrace Marshall. Although his usage and playmaking has been sporadic since joining the Panthers this season, Shenault's versatility and upside was on display in Thursday's victory.

NFL Week 10 top plays: Panthers best Falcons on Thursday Night Football

Laviska Shenault Jr. takes Walker's backwards pass to paydirt for 41-yard TD Carolina Panthers wide receiver Laviska Shenault catches a backwards pass from quarterback P.J. Walker and runs for a 41-yard touchdown.

NOVEMBER 11, 2022 • NFL.COM

Sheds injury designation Shenault (illness) was a full participant in practice Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Shenault was a DNP on the team's estimated practice report Monday but with the team holding an actual practice Tuesday, he was able to participate in full. He should be good to go Thursday against the Falcons.

NOVEMBER 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Limited on estimated report Shenault (illness) is listed as limited on Monday's estimated injury report, Darin Gantt of the the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact As is the norm, Carolina didn't practice in full Monday, so Shenault's status is an estimation. It's unclear what type of illness he's dealing with, but given that the Panthers play Thursday, there's a possibility that the issue could impact his availability for the team's Week 10 clash against Atlanta. Shenault hasn't been a big part of Carolina's passing game this season, and he logged only three offensive snaps in Sunday's loss against Cincinnati.

NOVEMBER 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Plays three snaps Shenault didn't catch his only target but rushed twice for six yards in Sunday's 42-21 loss to the Bengals.

Impact Shenault was the focus of all three of his offensive snaps, but his limited playing time restricts his value going into Week 10's Thursday night game versus the Falcons.

NOVEMBER 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Five catches in Week 8 Shenault caught five of six targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 37-34 overtime loss to the Falcons.

Impact Shenault ranked third on the team in targets behind DJ Moore (12) and Terrace Marshall (nine). His hamstring is back to full health, but Shenault's impact has been minimal outside of a 67-yard touchdown in Week 3.

OCTOBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Off Week 8 injury report Shenault (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Falcons.

Impact Shenault's good to go after practicing fully Friday. He played just two offensive snaps while trying to play through the injury last week, but Shenault could have a larger role Sunday against a banged up Falcons secondary in a Panthers passing game that lacks an established No. 2 wide receiver behind DJ Moore after trading away Robbie Anderson.

OCTOBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Limited again Thursday Shenault (hamstring) was listed as a limited participant on the Panthers' practice report Thursday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Shenault was deemed questionable with a hamstring injury heading into Sunday's win over the Buccaneers, and he ultimately played just two offensive snaps in the contest. Now, the 23-year-old has been limited in practice for the second day in a row to start Week 8 prep, once again leaving his availability up in the air. Shenault will have one more practice to increase his activity before Sunday's tilt against the Falcons.

OCTOBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Limited Wednesday Shenault was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice due to a hamstring issue.

Impact Shenault missed Weeks 5 and 6 due to a hamstring injury and only played two offensive snaps during Week 7, catching his lone target for eight yards. It's unclear if he aggravated his previous issue, or the team is simply being cautious. Regardless, Shenault will have two more opportunities to log a full session before the team needs to make a decision on his status for Sunday's matchup against the Falcons.

OCTOBER 26, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Still carving out a niche Shenault made one catch for eight yards on his only target in Sunday's 21-3 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Impact Shenault only played two snaps on offense, but he made them count by getting on the stat sheet. The 24-year-old is still trying to find a clear role in the Panthers' offense after being a late addition to the team, then dealing with a hamstring injury. With the departure of Robbie Anderson to the Cardinals, Shenault could still earn a bigger role moving forward, as he did have an impressive debut in Week 3, scoring a 67-yard touchdown against the Saints. He'll work to get more involved Sunday against the Falcons.

OCTOBER 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Playing in Week 7 Shenault (hamstring) is listed as active Sunday against the Buccaneers, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Since landing in Carolina from Jacksonville in late August, Shenault didn't play with his new team until Week 3 and missed the last two games due to a strained right hamstring, but after following an LP/LP/FP practice regimen during Week 7 prep, he's again available to the offense. While DJ Moore will be the top wide receiver for current starting quarterback PJ Walker, Shenault will be in the mix for targets with the likes of Shi Smith, Terrace Marshall and Rashard Higgins.

OCTOBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Logs full practice Shenault (hamstring) was a full practice participant Friday but is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay

Impact He's one of eight Panthers listed as questionable, including five who were full practice participants Friday. The end-of-week upgrade supports coach Steve Wilks' midweek assertion that Shenault would return from a two-game absence, though Wilks declined to comment on playing-time expectations for Shenault and Terrace Marshall after the Panthers traded starting wideout Robbie Anderson to Arizona. Neither is an appealing Week 7 fantasy option, dealing with workload uncertainty in an offense where even DJ Moore has found catches and yards hard to come by.

OCTOBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Limited Thursday Shenault (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Associated Press writer Steve Reed reports.

Impact With two limited practices to start the week it appears Shenault should be able to play against Tampa Bay. He's unlikely to start Sunday, meaning at most he might overtake Shi Smith as slot receiver while Terrace Marshall presumably lines up outside.

OCTOBER 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Set for return Shenault (hamstring) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, with coach Steve Wilks saying the wide receiver will return for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay but isn't li...

Impact Wilks also declined to name Terrace Marshall as a starter, but the Panthers will need someone to replace Robbie Anderson, assuming No. 3 receiver Shi Smith stays in his current role. It's mostly just a concern for the deepest of fantasy leagues, as Carolina's passing game has been consistently brutal this season and didn't show signs of improving with P.J. Walker under center for a Week 6 loss to the Rams. It'll be Walker starting again this Sunday against the Bucs.

OCTOBER 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to practice Wednesday Shenault (hamstring) is taking part in practice Wednesday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Impact While the extent of Shenault's participation isn't yet known, it's still encouraging to see the wideout back on the practice field for the first time since injuring his right hamstring during Week 4. His status for Sunday's matchup against Tampa Bay will likely become clearer as the week progresses, but if he's available, he could be in store for an increased role with Robbie Anderson now in Arizona.

OCTOBER 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play against Rams Shenault (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Shenault was unable to practice this week and will be held off the field for a second consecutive game due to his hamstring injury. Terrace Marshall and Rashard Higgins could see slightly increased roles against the Rams.

OCTOBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't practice again Shenault (hamstring) did not participate during Thursday's practice, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Shenault did not practice for the second day in a row after missing Sunday's loss to the 49ers with a lingering hamstring injury. Now, unless he can work his way back onto the practice field Friday, the third-year wideout appears likely to sit out once again in Week 6. Shenault caught two passes for 90 yards and a touchdown over just 11 offensive snaps against the Saints in Week 3, though his production could be limited by Carolina's depleted quarterback position if he does play Sunday.

OCTOBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Not practicing Shenault (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Impact Shenault has been dealing with the hamstring injury since at least Week 4 and wasn't able to play Week 5. He was only the team's No. 4 receiver when healthy, though a big performance in a Week 3 win over New Orleans led to some thought he might eventually move up the depth chart. That's still possible, eventually, but it probably won't happen this week while he continues to manage the injury.

OCTOBER 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Week 5 Shenault (hamstring) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Impact Shenault couldn't practice in any capacity this week, so it's unsurprising to see him officially ruled out for Week 5. That paves the road for Shi Smith to operate as the unquestioned No. 3 wideout behind DJ Moore and Robbie Anderson against San Francisco's stout defense.

OCTOBER 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Appears likely to sit Week 5 Shenault (hamstring), who has been a non-participant in the Panthers' first two Week 5 practices, said Thursday that he anticipates missing a couple of weeks, Joe Person of The Ath...

Impact Head coach Matt Rhule hasn't provided a gauge for Shenault's chances of playing Sunday against the 49ers, but given that players are notoriously more optimistic about their return timelines from injuries than coaches, the 24-year-old's negative assessment of his health is noteworthy. Assuming Shenault ends up sitting out for at least the Panthers' Week 5 game, Shi Smith would likely be relatively unchallenged for the No. 3 role at receiver behind DJ Moore and Robbie Anderson. The other two healthy wideouts on the Carolina roster -- Rashard Higgins and Terrace Marshall -- have combined to play 14 snaps through the Panthers' first four games.
