Two years ago, Feleipe Franks career took a turn. Now the QB turned tight end has found a way to make a name for himself on special teams. 

The Panthers kick off their season on Sunday versus the Saints. From a rookie's debut, to Young's progression, here are five things to watch. 

Teams must cut their rosters from 90 men down to 53 men by Tuesday afternoon. Dave Canales shares the Panthers mindset on receivers, quarterbacks and more ahead of the cuts. 

The Panthers will face the Jets Saturday night in their second preseason game. From battles at receiver to third quarterbacks, and a promising youthful secondary, here are the five things to watch.  

The Panthers made a series of roster moves on Sunday, waiving a kicker and adding an offensive tackle. 

The Panthers finished their spring practices, now get a break until training camp. Plus, Eddy Piñerio returned for the week, Shaq Thompson shared his recovery journey and more from Wednesday.

The Panthers will host the Jets for a joint practice in August, giving the Panthers a chance to match up against a different defensive look. That and more, from today's OTA practice. 

Jaycee Horn knows he can still be one of the best in the league. So he's changed his offseason approach, and is ready to prove he was worth the fifth-year option. 

Thomas Brown had some hard adjustments to make following the last loss. Plus, coordinators named in NFLPA rankings and Chark awarded for always showing up for local media.

The kicker hit his second walk-off field goal of the season in Sunday's win over the Falcons, but didn't get a piggyback ride this time.

After he filled in for the Panthers as an injury replacement just before the start of the season, he turned into a consistent performer. The team also released Zane Gonzalez.

They've gotten steady results the last two years with Zane Gonzalez and Eddy Piñeiro, which creates an interesting situation at the position.

Before his game-winner at New Orleans, the kicker's coaches and teammate kept faith in him through a season full of ups and downs.

The Panthers' kicker has made 17 straight field goals and is on pace with Carolina legend John Kasay for a single-season field goal record. 

The Panthers won't be able to watch Sunday's match between Argentina and France because it'll be just hours before the Pittsburgh game. Eddy Piñeiro and Jeremy Chinn have rooting interests. 

The Panthers kicker was honored after making all three field goals and all three extra points at Seattle, extending his run of consistent success.

The Panthers kicker made costly mistakes the last time he played Atlanta. But in a rainy Thursday game, he redeemed himself in front of a roaring crowd. 

A group of Panthers veterans rallied behind Piñeiro following two critical missed kicks in a loss to the Falcons.

Eddy Piñeiro had dreams of following in his father's soccer footsteps. A chance to support his family sent him on a journey that was anything but conventional.
