Bartholomew, 26, signed with the Jets as an undrafted free agent out of Georgia Southern following the 2024 NFL Draft. He was among the final roster cuts and was claimed by the Panthers.

He remained with Carolina for 2024 but was among their final roster cuts in 2025. He caught on with the Vikings’ practice squad in early November. Minnesota released Bartholomew at the end of November and he caught on with the Packers, only to be cut again as the roster was trimmed down in 2026. 

In 2024, Bartholomew appeared in five games for the Panthers and recorded three total tackles, one tackle for loss and two passes defended.
