What happened: Carolina finished a 59-37 loss, and Feleipe Franks surfaced on special teams in the game. The former quarterback added an uncommon note with work outside his original position.

Why it matters: That matters because Feleipe Franks keeps showing up in roles beyond quarterback, which broadens how Carolina can use him. Special teams value can matter as much as offensive snaps for players moving between positions.

What to watch: The next question is whether Franks stays in that phase-three role or shifts back toward a more conventional offensive workload.
