  Panthers | Carolina signs 11 to futures deals    Tue Jan 9, 06:02 AM

Carolina Panthers RB Tarik Cohen, RB Mike Boone, RB Spencer Brown, WR Jalen Camp, WR Cam Sims, TE Jordan Matthews, TE Chris Pierce, OT Badara Traore, DE Raequan Williams, CB AJ Parker and CB Lamar X. Jackson signed Reserve/Future contracts on Monday, Jan. 8.

Footballguys view: There are quite a few skill position players here that Fantasy GMs in super crazy deep dynasty formats should keep an eye on. We'll still throw out some love for Jordan Matthews just because a tight end that size can be a weapon in the red zone. However, most all of these guys are running out of time to prove themselves in the NFL.

Free-agent TE Jordan Matthews (49ers) agreed to terms with the San Francisco 49ers Friday, July 30. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Matthews, now a tight end, is going to try and earn a roster spot with the 49ers. He was with the team in 2020 and appeared in two games. Now, he joins a crowded but inexperienced tight end room behind superstar George Kittle. Charlie Woerner, Ross Dwelley, MyCole Pruitt, and UDFA Josh Pederson are the players Matthews will have to compete with.

San Francisco 49ers WR Jordan Matthews was released Saturday, Aug. 31, according to a source.

  49ers | Jordan Matthews likely to make roster    Sun Jul 21, 03:36 PM

San Francisco 49ers WR Jordan Matthews is expected to make the 53-man roster along with Dante Pettis, Marquise Goodwin, Jalen Hurd and Deebo Samuel, according to Cam Inman of The Mercury News.

Footballguys view: The 49ers have an embarrassment of riches at wide receiver. The last receiver or two to get cut from their roster should make another team. Matthews, Trent Taylor, Kendrick Bourne and Richie James all have experience but only one or two will make the roster.

Footballguys view: Matthews will be battling to make the team in one of the deepest wide receiver groups in the league. There might be a spot as the #6 up for grabs between Matthews and Richie James. Either could catch on elsewhere if they don't make the 49ers final 53.
