Anderson was waived by the Panthers on Monday, Max Henson of the Panthers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Christian McCaffrey handling a 96.3 percent snap share, Anderson presumably was frustrated with a role much smaller than what he signed up for in the offseason. The 27-year-old shouldn't have much trouble finding work, as he's averaged 4.3 yards on 24 carries for the Panthers after producing the first 1,000-yard rushing season of his career with the Broncos in 2017. Anderson might provide an immediate upgrade in Philadelphia or Tampa Bay.

Anderson lost one yard on his two carries in Week 10's loss to the Steelers.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson has now been given just 24 carries through nine games, emphasizing his small role behind starting tailback Christian McCaffrey.

Anderson rushed one time for one yard in Week 9's win over the Buccaneers.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson played just three snaps on offense, returning to a very peripheral role after getting five carries the game prior. Halfway through the season, Anderson is averaging under three touches per game, evidencing his lack of involvement behind all-purpose starter Christian McCaffrey.

Anderson rushed five times for 20 yards in Sunday's 36-21 win over the Ravens.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson's workload was his highest since Week 1. In fact, it marked the first time he was handed any carries since Week 5. While he's done well in his limited opportunities, averaging an even 5.0 yards per carry, Anderson's small share still severely restricts his value.

Anderson did not get any touches in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Eagles.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson played just three offensive snaps, but that shouldn't be surprising considering how sparingly he's been used since joining the Panthers this season. Unless something were to happen to Christian McCaffrey, the veteran backup figures to remain in a restricted role.

Anderson rushed four times for nine yards in Sunday's 33-31 win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson continues to play a bit part as Christian McCaffrey's backup, featuring for just eight offensive snaps Sunday. Through four games, he's been handed just 16 carries, gaining a respectable 84 yards.

Anderson rushed twice for nine yards and added a 24-yard touchdown catch on his lone target in Sunday's 31-21 win over Cincinnati.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson was out-touched 30-3 by Christian McCaffrey in this one, but the backup running back made the most of his meager workload. The highlight of Anderson's day was definitely a screen pass that he took 24 yards to the house while barely getting touched. The veteran running back will be hoping the coaching staff incorporates him into the offense more after next week's bye.

Anderson rushed three times for 31 yards in Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Falcons.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson's total was boosted by a 22-yard run, which marked Carolina's longest play on the ground. He was also targeted twice, but couldn't haul either attempt in. The veteran was on the field for just eight offensive snaps, again emphasizing his backup role to Christian McCaffrey, who finished with 22 touches while missing just four plays.

Anderson (illness) practiced fully Thursday, Max Henson of the Panthers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson has put the illness that forced a DNP on Wednesday behind him. As the top backup to Christian McCaffrey, Anderson handled 12 offensive snaps Week 1 against the Cowboys, compiling seven carries for 35 yards. If the breakdown of red-zone runs is any indication -- Anderson matched McCaffrey with two rushes, or one less than Cam Newton -- a clear-cut goal-line option has yet to emerge in Carolina.

Anderson (illness) returned to practice Thursday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

An illness kept Anderson off the practice field Wednesday, but he's back at work and thus in line to suit up Sunday against the Falcons. The former Bronco logged 12 snaps (while rushing seven times for 35 yards) in the Panthers' Week 1 win over the Cowboys, while working as the clear backup to Christian McCaffrey (57 snaps). Anderson's fantasy value is modest so long as McCaffrey remains healthy, but if that context changes, he's one of the league's more capable backup/complementary running back options.
