Dan Chisena Injury News & Updates
Nov 10, 2025
Back with practice squad
Chisena reverted to the Panthers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Chisena was elevated to the active roster ahead of the team's 17-7 loss to the Saints on Sunday, failing to record any stats while playing four snaps on offense and nine snaps with the special-teams unit. The wide receiver was behind Tetairoa McMillan (48), Jalen Coker (40), Xavier Legette (37) and Jimmy Horn (11) in offensive snaps while Hunter Renfrow was a healthy scratch. Chisena is eligible to be elevated two more times before the team would have to officially sign him to the active roster.
Nov 8, 2025
Elevated for Week 10
The Panthers elevated Chisena from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena's elevation is likely insurance, preparing for the event in which wide receivers Tetairoa McMillan (hamstring) or Brycen Tremayne (hip) are unable to suit up for Sunday's game. The 28-year-old wide receiver logged 80 special teams snaps and 19 offensive snaps for the Panthers during the 2024 campaign, where he acquired his first three NFL receptions for 37 yards.
Sep 23, 2025
Back with Carolina on PS
The Panthers signed Chisena (calf) to the practice squad Tuesday, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena was nursing a calf injury at the beginning of training camp, which led to him and the Panthers reaching an injury settlement in late July. The 28-year-old wideout appears to have fully recovered from the injury and has opted to return to Carolina as a member of the team's practice squad. Chisena has mostly operated on special teams since entering the league in April of 2020 as an undrafted free agent, but he did log three catches (on four targets) for 37 yards across six regular-season games with the Panthers in 2024.
Jul 29, 2025
Let go by Panthers
Chisena (calf) was released by the Panthers on Tuesday, Alex Zietlow of The Charlotte Observer reports.
ANALYSIS
After one season in Carolina, Chisena has been released with an injury settlement to create roster space for the signing of Ja'Seem Reed. The 28-year-old appeared in six games last year, recording three receptions for 37 yards. He will now look to join a new team for the sixth time since entering the league in 2020.
Jul 21, 2025
Starting training camp on PUP list
Chisena (undisclosed) was placed on the active/PUP list Monday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena can be activated at any time during training camp. He has spent most of his NFL career playing special teams, though the 28-year-old Chisena registered the first three NFL catches of his career with the Panthers last season.
Mar 12, 2025
Returning to Carolina
Chisena re-signed with the Panthers on a one-year contract Wednesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena began the 2024 season in Arizona before joining Carolina's practice squad mid-October, ultimately appearing in six games with the Panthers. He secured three of four targets for 37 yards in that span. Now, Chisena will work to put together a strong offseason and earn another reserve role on offense during the 2025 campaign.
Jan 16, 2025
Sees more offensive work in 2024
Chisena caught three of his four targets for 37 yards across six regular-season games in 2024.
ANALYSIS
Chisena joined the Panthers' practice squad in mid-October after beginning his 2024 campaign in Arizona. The Penn State product went on to appear in six of Carolina's final seven games this season, recording the first three receptions of his NFL career while also contributing on special teams (80 special-teams snaps). After inking a deal to join the Panthers' active roster Dec. 17, Chisena is set to be a restricted free agent this summer, meaning Carolina can match any offer he receives from another team. If the 27-year-old remains with the Panthers, he'll likely compete for a depth role in the team's wide receiver room throughout the offseason.
Dec 17, 2024
Signed to Panthers' active roster
The Panthers signed Chisena off the practice squad to the active roster Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena signed with the Panthers' practice squad in mid-October after being cut from the Cardinals' practice squad. Chisena was elevated to Carolina's active roster from Week 12 to 14, and over those three games he played 39 snaps (nine on offense, 30 on special teams) and caught his lone target for six yards. Chisena will provide the Panthers depth at wide receiver, and he could see some snaps on offense against the Cardinals on Sunday if rookie first-round pick Xavier Legette (groin) is unable to play.
Dec 9, 2024
Back to practice squad
Chisena reverted to Carolina's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Chisena played 11 snaps (six on offense, five on special teams) but did not show up in the box score during Sunday's 22-16 loss to the Eagles. It was the third time Chisena was elevated from the practice squad, which means the Panthers would have to sign him to the active roster in order to keep playing him.
Dec 7, 2024
Elevated for Week 14
The Panthers elevated Chisena from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
It's the third straight game that Chisena has been elevated for, and he'll give the Panthers added depth at wide receiver for Sunday's game against the Eagles as Jalen Coker (quadriceps) is unlikely to play. Chisena caught his lone target for six yards while playing 19 snaps (two on offense, 17 on special teams) in the Panthers' Week 13 overtime loss to the Buccaneers.
Dec 2, 2024
Returns to practice squad
Chisena reverted to the Panthers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Chisena caught his only target for six yards while playing two of the team's 70 total offensive snaps. Additionally, he logged 17 snaps with the special-teams unit, failing to record any stats on those snaps. The wide receiver can be elevated to the active roster one more time before Carolina would officially have to sign him.
Nov 30, 2024
Elevated for Week 13
The Panthers elevated Chisena from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena will be elevated to the Panthers' active roster for a second straight week. He played nine snaps (one on offense, eight on special teams) and did not record a stat. Chisena gives Carolina an extra body for special teams and added depth at wide receiver.
Nov 25, 2024
Reverts back to practice squad
The Panthers reverted Chisena to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Chisena got his first elevation of the season for Sunday's Week 12 loss to Kansas City but played just one offensive snap. He also logged eight snaps on special teams. The veteran wideout remains without a catch or a target in his NFL career, as the vast majority of his work over 32 regular-season contests has come on special teams.
Nov 23, 2024
Elevated from practice squad
The Panthers elevated Chisena from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena started the 2024 regular season on the Cardinals' practice squad after failing to make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he was cut by Arizona on Oct. 11. He signed with the Panthers' practice squad Oct. 16, and he will be elevated to the active roster Saturday for the first time this season. Chisena played in four regular-season games for the Cardinals in 2023, with 53 of his 54 snaps coming on special teams.
Oct 16, 2024
Joins Panthers' practice squad
Chisena signed with the Panthers' practice squad Wednesday, Anthony Rizzuti of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena was cut from the Cardinals' practice squad on Oct. 11, and it didn't take him long to find a new home in Carolina. The Penn State product appeared in four games with the Cardinals this season, playing almost strictly on special teams (53 of 54 total snaps). Chisena could be added to Carolina's active roster if team's wide receiver room faces injuries later this season.
Oct 11, 2024
Dropped by Arizona
The Cardinals cut Chisena from their practice squad Friday.
ANALYSIS
Chisena stuck around on Arizona's practice squad after failing to make the team's initial 53-man roster in late August, but it now appears the Cardinals have decided to go in another direction. In a corresponding move, the Cardinals signed wide receiver Chris Moore to their practice squad.
Aug 29, 2024
Staying in Arizona
Chisena signed with the Cardinals' practice squad Wednesday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena appeared in four regular-season games with the Cardinals last season as a special-teams contributor. After locking down a reserve/future contract with the team in January, he was unable to crack the final 53-man roster. However, his addition to the practice squad will give him an opportunity to impress and potentially find his way on the field on Sundays.
Aug 27, 2024
Doesn't make roster
Chisena was waived by the Cardinals on Tuesday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The wide receiver signed a reserve/future contract with Arizona in February after playing on 53 special-teams snaps with the team during the 2023 regular season. Chisena also played a special-teams role with Baltimore during the playoffs.
Feb 6, 2024
Returning to Arizona
The Cardinals signed Chisena to a reserve/future contract Tuesday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena will return to Arizona where he spent time on both their active roster and practice squad last season before being released in January. The 26-year-old will now spend the offseason competing for a roster spot after failing to record any stats in four games throughout the 2023 campaign.
Jan 29, 2024
Reverts to practice squad
Chisena reverted to the Ravens' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Chisena played 18 special teams snaps in the AFC title game against the Chiefs, making a pair of tackles (one solo). He figures to get a reserve/future deal from Baltimore this week.
Jan 27, 2024
Elevated for AFC Championship game
The Ravens elevated Chisena to the active roster Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Chisena signed with the Ravens' practice squad Jan. 10. He was elevated for Baltimore's AFC divisional-round win over the Texans, and he played 16 snaps on special teams. Chisena will likely reprise that role Sunday if he's active.
Jan 22, 2024
Reverts to practice squad
Chisena reverted to the Ravens' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Signed to the practice squad on January 10, Chisena was elevated for Saturday's playoff win over the Texans, seeing action on 16 special teams snaps.
Jan 19, 2024
Elevated for divisional round
The Ravens elevated Chisena from the practice squad Friday.
ANALYSIS
Chisena was cut from the Cardinals' practice squad 11 days ago and joined Baltimore's unit two days later. He's getting a call-up ahead of Saturday's game against the Texans, but Chisena shouldn't be expected to have a meaningful on-field role.
Jan 10, 2024
Joins Ravens' practice squad
Baltimore signed Chisena to its practice squad Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
In a corresponding transaction, the Ravens cut running back Jake Funk from their practice squad Wednesday. Over four games with the Cardinals this season, Chisena played almost exclusively on special teams.
Jan 8, 2024
Let go by Arizona
Chisena reverted to the Cardinals' practice squad before the team cut him Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena played 12 snaps on special teams in the Cardinals' regular-season finale against the Seahawks. He appeared in four games in 2023, played all but one of his 54 snaps on special teams and did not record a stat.
Jan 6, 2024
Back with active roster
The Cardinals elevated Chisena to their active roster Saturday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Zach Pascal has been dealing with a hamstring issue and he's listed as questionable for Sunday's affair, so Chisena's elevation will ensure some extra depth at wide receiver. The Penn State product has already appeared in three games for Arizona this season, recording two total tackles on 41 special teams snaps.
Jan 1, 2024
Back to practice squad
The Cardinals reverted Chisena to the practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Chisena played 13 snaps on special teams in the Cardinals' 35-31 win over the Eagles. It's the third time he has been called up from the practice squad this season, meaning that Arizona would have to sign him to the active roster in order to play him in the regular-season finale against Seattle.
Dec 30, 2023
Elevated to active roster
The Cardinals elevated Chisena from their practice squad to their active roster Saturday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena has gotten into two games for Arizona this season, logging one offensive snap and 27 special-teams snaps without recording any stats. The 26-year-old has played in 29 total games over his NFL career -- the first three seasons of which were spent with Minnesota -- but has tallied just 14 offensive snaps in total while working primarily on special teams. He figures to have a similar role Sunday in Philadelphia.
Dec 25, 2023
Back to practice squad
Chisena reverted to the Cardinals' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Chisena saw 16 snaps on special teams (67 percent) in Week 16 en route to two tackles. One tackle came on kick coverage, while the other came on special teams. It was his second time suiting up this season. It remains to be seen if the depth pass catcher will be elevated to the roster again in Week 17.
Dec 23, 2023
Elevated ahead of Sunday
The Cardinals elevated Chisena to their active roster Saturday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The 26-year-old was elevated alongside Kaden Davis on Saturday, which could very well mean that the Cardinals are preparing to be without Marquise Brown (heel) and Greg Dortch (shoulder) in Week 16. Chisena has appeared in one game for Arizona this year, playing a total of 13 snaps (one offensive and 12 on special teams).
Dec 5, 2023
Back on practice squad
Chisena signed with the Cardinals' practice squad Tuesday, Darren Urban of the team's official website reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena was waived by Arizona on Monday and ultimately went unclaimed. He is now back with the practice unit and will look to earn another opportunity on the active roster. He played one offensive snap (2 percent) and 12 on special teams (50 percent) in Week 13.
Dec 4, 2023
Gets waived by Cardinals
Arizona waived Chisena on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Just two days after signing Chisena to their active roster, the Cardinals have now decided to let him go. He's set to become a free agent unless he's claimed by another team during the current waiver period.
Dec 2, 2023
Signs to active roster
The Cardinals signed Chisena to their active roster Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
The 26-year-old wideout joined Arizona's practice squad just under two weeks ago, and he's now in line to appear in his first game in 2023. Chisena's most recent in-game action came in 2022 with the Vikings, and over the course of his four-year NFL career, he's appeared in 27 games, playing almost strictly on special teams.
Nov 22, 2023
Joins Arizona's practice squad
The Cardinals signed Chisena to their practice squad Wednesday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The Vikings released Chisena from their practice squad Tuesday, and one day later the former Penn State wideout has latched on with Arizona. Chisena hasn't yet seen NFL action this season, but he played in 27 contests with Minnesota from 2020 to 2022, with the vast majority of his work coming on special teams.
Nov 21, 2023
Cut by Minnesota
Chisena was released from the Vikings' practice squad Tuesday, Craig Peters of the team's official website reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena signed with Minnesota's practice squad in October after being let go by the Steelers in August, but he will once again be looking for a new suitor. The wide receiver hasn't appeared in a game this season after playing in two with the Vikings in 2022.
Oct 11, 2023
Returns to Minnesota
Chisena signed with the Vikings' practice squad Wednesday, Craig Peters of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena will return to Minnesota where he spent time throughout the past three seasons playing mainly on special teams. The 26-year-old should serve as an extra depth option at receiver with Justin Jefferson (hamstring) now on injured reserve and Jordan Addison (ankle) also dealing with an injury.
Aug 26, 2023
Let go by Pittsburgh
The Steelers cut Chisena on Saturday, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena was let go as part of the Steelers' initial round of roster cuts heading into the regular season, likely indicating that he could be a longshot to receive a spot on the team's practice squad as well. The 26-year-old appeared in 27 games over his first three seasons with the Vikings, though he has yet to record a reception in the NFL.
Jan 23, 2023
Lands future deal
The Steelers signed Chisena to a reserve/future contract Monday.
ANALYSIS
Chisena signed a practice-squad deal with the Vikings after failing to make the team's initial 53-man roster and saw two elevations during the 2022 campaign, though 24 of his 26 snaps during those contests came on special teams. Minnesota didn't sign him to a reserve deal after being eliminated from the playoffs, making the third-year wideout a free agent. With his new deal, he'll be able to join the Steelers' organization and compete for a roster spot during the offseason.
Nov 7, 2022
Moves back to practice squad
Chisena reverted to Minnesota's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Chisena got his second elevation of the season prior to Sunday's Week 9 win over Washington and didn't see any snaps on offense. He logged 16 snaps on special teams, making one tackle on punt coverage. Chisena has worked almost exclusively as a special teamer during his three NFL seasons.
Nov 5, 2022
Elevated from practice squad
Chisena was elevated from the Vikings' practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Commanders.
ANALYSIS
Chisena has spent the entire season on the Vikings' practice squad and this marks the second time he has been elevated to the active roster. The first occasion came in Week 5, when he played only two offensive snaps. He is likely to play a limited role once again against the Commanders.
Oct 10, 2022
Returning to practice squad
Chisena reverted to the Vikings' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Chisena earned the elevation with Jalen Nailor inactive due to a hamstring injury. He chipped in with eight snaps on special teams, which lead to one tackle on kick coverage.
Oct 8, 2022
Bumped up to active roster
The Vikings elevated Chisena on Saturday from their practice squad to their active roster for Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena draws his first elevation of the season and is in line to make his season debut in Week 5. The 25-year-old wideout has appeared in 25 games for Minnesota over the past two seasons, but he's played primarily on special teams, logging just 11 offensive snaps. The wideout has yet to catch a pass in the NFL.
Aug 31, 2022
Inks practice squad deal
The Vikings signed Chisena (leg) to their practice squad Wednesday, Craig Peters of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena missed the Vikings' final two preseason games with a leg injury and was waived ahead of Tuesday's 53-man roster deadline. The third-year wideout has appeared in 25 games with Minnesota over the past two seasons, playing almost exclusively on special teams.
Aug 30, 2022
Released by Minnesota
Chisena (leg) was released by the Vikings.
ANALYSIS
Chisena missed time in training camp with a leg injury which may have hurt his chances. He could be signed to the practice squad as the Vikings may need him at some point for his play on special teams, especially punt coverage.
Aug 14, 2022
Suffers leg injury
Chisena, who'd been dealing with a lower leg injury during training camp, sustained a similar injury in Sunday's preseason loss at Las Vegas, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. He had one reception for 22 yards on two targets before the injury.
ANALYSIS
Chisena is a key player on special teams especially punt coverage. Chisena appeared in 11 games last year, playing all his snaps on special teams. He's a long shot to win any role on offense.
Dec 23, 2021
Activated by Vikings
The Vikings activated Chisena from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Chisena was away from the team for a week and a half due to the league's COVID-19 protocols, but he'll now be eligible to return to practice. He's played primarily on special teams this year.
Dec 13, 2021
Lands on COVID-19 list
Chisena was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday.
ANALYSIS
Chisena will need to produce back-to-back negative tests at least 24 hours apart or complete a 10-day quarantine before he is able to return to team facilities. The wideout hasn't seen more than five offensive snaps in a game this season, so his potential absence shouldn't impact the Vikings' offensive gameplan.
Oct 9, 2021
Waived by Vikings
Chisena was waived by the Vikings on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
The wide receiver was activated from injured reserved Wednesday after dealing with an undisclosed injury, but it seems his run with the team has come to an end. He'll look to find another squad where he can battle for a depth spot at wideout.
Oct 6, 2021
Activated from injured reserve
The Vikings activated Chisena (undisclosed) from injured reserve Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Chisena returned to practice last week after spending the minimum three weeks on IR, and he has now officially been added to the 53-man roster. The 26-year-old appeared in 14 games for the Vikings last year but didn't see any snaps on offense. He will likely garner a similar role for Minnesota during the 2021 season.
Sep 29, 2021
Returns to practice Wednesday
Chisena (undisclosed) returned to practice Wednesday, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena spent the minimum three weeks on IR, and he will now have three weeks to be added to the active roster. If he isn't, he will head back to IR for the remainder of the season.
Sep 1, 2021
Moves to injured reserve
Chisena (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, Eric Smith of the Vikings' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The specifics of the injury remain unclear, but Chisena will open the regular season on injured reserve. The 24-year-old will miss at least the first three games of the season for Minnesota.
Nov 6, 2020
Cleared for Week 9
Chisena (hip) isn't on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Lions, Andrew Krammer of the Star Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena should be active, but his role will likely remain limited, as the rookie is yet to play a snap on offense this season.
Nov 5, 2020
Held to limited participation
Chisena (hip) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice session.
ANALYSIS
The 23-year-old receiver was ruled out of Sunday's NFC North matchup against Green Bay, marking his first game absence of 2020. Chisena has yet to field a single offensive snap during his rookie campaign out of Penn State, though he has played an important special-teams role with an average of 21 snaps per game in that department. Given that he's been able to log consecutive limited sessions in practice Wednesday and Thursday, there's a reasonable chance of him being active for another divisional matchup Week 9 against Detroit.
Oct 31, 2020
Unavailable against Packers
Chisena (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Packers, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena popped up on the injury report Friday as a non-participant in practice, so it's not surprising that he's ruled out ahead of the Week 8 tilt. All of Chisena's contributions this season have been on special teams, so this won't affect the offensive dynamic.
Oct 30, 2020
Questionable for Week 8
Chisena (undisclosed) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Green Bay.
ANALYSIS
Even if he suits up, Chisena's impact is likely to be limited to special teams situations. His contributions on the stat sheet through six games have been limited to one fumble recovery.
Aug 30, 2020
Positional change
The Vikings are switching Chisena from receiver to safety, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
ANALYSIS
Chisena's positional shift comes with the context that he's been impressing on special teams throughout training camp. The Penn State product could have an outside chance at a spot on the final roster, though it's more likely that he could latch on to Minnesota's practice squad as a way to continue developing with the team.
