Former Clemson star Hunter Renfrow’s journey with the Carolina Panthers has unfortunately come to an end.

The Panthers announced that Renfrow has been released ahead of today’s 4 p.m. ET roster cutdown deadline, by which NFL teams must reduce their rosters to 53 players.

Renfrow signed with the Panthers back in April, attempting an NFL comeback after missing the entire 2024 season while dealing with health challenges stemming from a diagnosis of the autoimmune condition ulcerative colitis.

The 29-year-old veteran caught four passes for 12 yards this preseason. He missed the Panthers’ preseason opener due to a hamstring injury before playing in their other two preseason games.

Prior to sitting out the 2024 season, Renfrow played five seasons with the Raiders from 2019-23, tallying 269 receptions for 2,884 yards and 17 touchdowns over that span before being released by the Raiders in March 2024. He finished the 2023 season with just 25 catches for 255 yards, but dealt with an injury most of the season.

After being selected in the fifth round by the Raiders in the 2019 NFL Draft, Renfrow turned in his best season two years later, catching 103 balls for 1,038 yards and nine touchdowns in 2021. He was a Pro Bowl selection that season.

Renfrow spent five years at Clemson, originally joining the team as a walk-on in 2014. He won two national titles (2016 and 2018) during his tenure with the Tigers and also took home the Burlsworth Award in 2018, which is given out to college football’s most outstanding player to begin his career as a walk-on. He also posted College Football Playoff records with 37 receptions and four touchdowns in seven career CFP games.

Renfrow left Clemson credited with 186 receptions for 2,133 yards with 15 touchdowns.
