Hello CSR! We are officially ONE WEEK away from kickoff for the Carolina Panthers 2025 season opener. That means its time to celebrate number 7 on the roster: safety Tre’von Moehrig!
Moehrig entered the league out of TCU as the 43rd overall pick of the 2021 NFL Draft, selected by the Las Vegas Raiders. He had himself quite a career there, starting 64 games with 297 tackles, 29 pass deflections, 6 interceptions, 2 fumble recoveries, and 3 sacks as a safety for their unit. His steady production at safety, despite being played out of his preferred position at times, led him to free agency this off-season, where the Panthers scooped him up on a 3 year, $51 million contract with $34.5 million of it guaranteed!
Moehrig was brought in to be the DAWG of the secondary. He’s always been a tone setter of a tackler, and its shown in training camp. GM Dan Morgan and HC Dave Canales have praised him as a guy who is physical in everything he does, whether it be in run support, defending the pass, even special teams when needed. He can do basically everything you need from a safety, but he’s definitely best suited to play close to the line of scrimmage as his best seasons came as a strong safety in this league. Carolina’s secondary definitely needs the boost the Panthers paid him a boatload of money to be.
What are your thoughts on Moehrig, Panthers fans? Sound off below in the comments!
