Overview
- Reports from The Charlotte Observer and other outlets say Christensen has been medically cleared for contact after tearing his Achilles in Week 8 of the 2025 season.
- The 29-year-old remains an unrestricted free agent and says he has stayed in touch with the Carolina Panthers while seeking a situation where he can compete for playing time.
- Christensen’s career experience includes snaps at all five offensive-line positions, a versatility that increases his short-term value as a flexible backup or competition piece.
- Analysts have pointed to teams with thin interior depth, including the Green Bay Packers, as likely fits because Christensen would be a low-cost option who can practice from camp after being cleared.
- A reunion with Carolina is possible but made uncertain by the Panthers’ offseason additions to the line and Christensen’s clear preference for a spot that offers a realistic path to starting snaps.
