Renfrow, listed at 5'10" and 185 pounds, spent the 2025 season with the Carolina Panthers and has a market value of just over $1 million per Spotrac. He posted a 1,000-yard campaign with the Raiders in 2021 (103 catches on 128 targets for 1,038 yards and nine touchdowns), but at age 30 and after sitting out 2024 due to medical diagnosis, questions remain about whether he has enough left in the tank to contribute.

Renfrow spent the 2025 season playing for the Carolina Panthers and was not a huge part of their plans. He is a talented if small receiver listed at 5'10" and 185 pounds with six NFL seasons of experience, including one 1,000-yard campaign with the Raiders in 2021 (103 catches on 128 targets for 1,038 yards and nine touchdowns). He could be an interesting addition to the Bills' receivers room as a depth option.

Renfrow, 30 years old and listed at 5'10" and 185 pounds, played the 2025 season with the Panthers but wasn't a huge part of their plans. He has a 1,000-yard history with the Raiders (2021: 103 catches on 128 targets for 1,038 yards and 9 TDs) and could be an interesting addition to the Bills' receivers room at just over $1M market value. The source questions whether he has the necessary gas left in the tank to contribute in 2026.

.@FB_FilmAnalysis views Makai Lemon as a 'high-floor' prospect, but questions his star upside: "His high-end comp is Amon-Ra St. Brown. Another comp is Hunter Renfrow, who was productive early in his career. He's somewhere in between St. Brown and Renfrow."

Hunter Renfroe was the Panthers' primary slot receiver in 2024 and a constraint on Tetairoa McMillan's early-season slot usage. After medically retiring and returning to football, Renfroe is described as slot-only in 2025, limiting McMillan's ability to move into the slot while Renfroe was the team's third receiver. As Renfroe's role remains slot-exclusive, the Panthers needed to add boundary receivers (Jaylen Coker, Chris Braswell) to free up McMillan for increased slot deployment.
