Perhaps you've heard this one before . . .
A former Carolina Panther is headed to Orchard Park, N.Y.
As announced on Thursday, wideout Devin Thompkins has signed with the Buffalo Bills. The 26-year-old receiver spent part of the 2024 campaign as a member of the Panthers.
The Fort Meyers, Fla. native and Utah State product began his NFL career as an undrafted free agent with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2022. He'd then cross paths with current Panthers head coach Dave Canales, formerly Tampa's offensive coordinator, a year later in 2023.
Canales would bring Thompkins to Carolina in the summer of 2024, his first year leading the team. The speedy 5-foot-8, 155-pounder played in seven games for the Panthers that season—amassing four receptions for 20 yards along with five punt returns and five kickoff returns.
Thompkins last played for the Atlanta Falcons, appearing in seven contests in 2025.
