When the Carolina Panthers traded veteran wide receiver Adam Thielen to the Minnesota Vikings, most fans thought Hunter Renfrow would come back into the fold. Whether that was on the active roster or practice squad remained debatable, but almost everyone thought this scenario would become reality.
That wasn't the case. Renfrow wasn't included on Carolina's practice squad after his release. No other offers have been forthcoming, which immediately came with speculation that his career comeback was about to end almost before it began.
Renfrow made some impressive strides this offseason. It took a while for the Pro Bowler to find his football legs again after so long away from the gridiron through illness.
