The Carolina Panthers invested a ton of money into their defense this offseason with the obvious aim of improving a unit that was among the NFL’s worst in 2024. One of the most significant moves was the signing of veteran defensive lineman Bobby Brown III, who inked a three-year, $21 million deal with the Panthers […]

Nearly a year ago at this time, the second overall pick in the 2002 NFL draft was receiving his Pro Football Hall of Fame bust in Canton, Ohio.

The Carolina Panthers have worked at length over the last few years, and at great cost to their defense, to build a good offense around Bryce Young.

Cam Newton’s official status, both with the NFL and with the Carolina Panthers, is not exactly straightforward. A Panthers beat writer wants that to happen.

Former University of Alabama quarterback and 2021 Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young was the Carolina Panthers’ starter for 16 of the club’s 17 games. In those 16 contests, Young connected on just 59.8 percent of his throws for 2,877 yards and 11 touchdowns, with 10 interceptions. Back in May, CBS Sports’ Tyler Sullivan put out […]

The Carolina Panthers have now lost at least 10 games in six consecutive seasons, a dubious franchise record. The club had numerous issues this past season, particularly on the defensive side of the ball. Hence, Joseph Person of The Athletic asked if there would be enough pass rush from the team this upcoming season? “The […]

The Carolina Panthers have arguably had one of the worst QB rooms in the NFL for the last two seasons. Bryce Young looked at best like a mediocre QB and at worst a bust. Third-string Jack Plummer is also uninspiring. Dalton had played overall fairly well in his starting stint, meaning Carolina had a competent […]

The Carolina Panthers dumped a bunch of resources into their defense this offseason, and rightfully so.
