On Thursday, we looked at some players that are candidates for release from their current teams that could be good targets for the Carolina Panthers. Admittedly, the pickings were a little slim on the offensive side of the ball. However, there are some spicier options on the defensive end that are more likely to be […]

The Carolina Panthers enter the 2026 offseason with plenty of cap space and pretty easy means to make even more. They have a quarterback on a rookie contract, which is prime time to spend a bunch of money on a supporting cast. Other teams are not so fortunate. There are going to be a lot […]

While this series is titled Rising Stars, Carolina Panthers wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan has a strong argument to remove the word ‘rising’, because he already might be a star. It’s hefty praise to heap onto a rookie, but in the era of the NFL where first year players are thrown into the starting line-up in […]

Over the past several weeks we’ve been assessing Dan Morgan’s performance in his second year on the job as general manager of the Carolina Panthers. We’ve reviewed his trades, scrutinized his free agent additions, and evaluated his 2025 draft performance, including Rounds 1-3 and Rounds 4-7. It’s now time to roll everything up and give him a final […]

Let’s take a look back on Morgan’s second season as GM. We’ve previously […]

According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the Carolina Panthers are hiring Darrell Bevell as Associate Head Coach and Offensive Specialist. The Panthers haven’t made any changes to the staff prior to this, so it appears Bevell is a pure addition to the group. Dave Canales will continue to call plays and Brad Idzik is still […]

Hello CSR! Welcome to Ask Brian, part one of your weekly Panthers fan mailbag for everyone! Sam Darnold, and the Seahawks triumphed over the New England Patriots on Sunday to crown the next Super Bowl winner. Carolina played both those teams and unfortunately lost by pretty big margins though the games started out quite close. […]

With Super Bowl LX in the books, it’s time to look forward to the long offseason of 2026. The Carolina Panthers are not widely expected to repeat their moderate successes of the 2025 season. Bryce Young has not firmly and obviously established himself as “the answer,” even as the team is preparing to offer him […]
