The former Buccaneers wide receiver has landed on his feet in the NFL.
Deven Thompkins is signing with the Carolina Panthers after being waived by the Buccaneers. His departure from the team this fall was an odd situation, as domestic violence allegations were unveiled soon after he left the team.
Panthers signed former Buccaneers wide receiver Deven Thompkins, who spent the past two seasons with the Buccaneers, where he was with Carolina HC Dave Canales.The NFL's investigation concluded that Thompkins would not be receiving a ban or supsension under the league's personal conduct policy. Becuase of this, the young wide receiver got another opportunity in the league, coming with his former offensive coordinator.
The 24-year-old wide receiver was waived with an injury designation earlier this year, and it came just days after his wife accused him of physical abuse. Thompkins sued his wife for defamation after she threatened him with what Thompkins described as “fabricated allegations of domestic violence unless he met her financial demands for additional alimony” in the divorce proceeding., Thompkins was a very subpar wide receiver and average returner.
Thompkins caught 22 passes for 115 yards and one touchdown through his two seasons with Tampa Bay, with his production primarily coming in 2023. Not only is he now reunited with Canales, but he'll also reunite with another former Buccaneers wide receiver in David Moore. It'll be interesting to see Thompkins go through training camp and preseason as he looks to find his way onto the 53-man roster later this fall.Kade has been covering a wide variety of teams ranging from the NFL to the NBA and college athletics since joining Sports Illustrated's FanNation in 2022.
