Weekly rows describe the supplied week, not a dated transaction. Observed dates show when a record was checked, not when a contract or roster move took effect. Conflicting records remain separate. Only retained observations are shown; game-day status belongs to the availability report.

Carolina’s second-year receiver came within one catch and nine yards of two franchise records, and the defense stopped Detroit on fourth-and-13 to seal the win.
