Panthers make changes to the front office

Panthers make changes to the front office

The Carolina Panthers let go of a couple people involved in the scouting and drafting of players.

According to Joe Person of The Athletic, the Carolina Panthers have let a couple of people go from positions in player personnel. Director of Player Personnel Cole Spencer and college scout Robert Haines are out.

Spencer joined the Panthers as the team’s Director of College Scouting in 2021 before getting promoted to his role as Director of Player Personnel in 2023. He was a scout at various levels in the Commanders organization for over 10 years prior to that. Robert Haines had been...

The Panthers have drastically improved their public perception

The Panthers have drastically improved their public perception

The team has gone from a laughingstock to a team that people are looking forward to watching.

Up until recently, the Carolina Panthers had never established themselves as a mainstay in any particular segment of the NFL. The teams frequent oscillations in record prevented anyone outside of Carolina from having too strong or embedded opinion of the organization. Sometimes they were good, sometimes they were bad, but never did they move in either direction for long.

The last few years have changed that. A series of disastrous transactions and disastrous seasons made the Panthers the league’s punching bags. If a...

Injuries during voluntary workouts begin the roster churn

The Carolina Panthers have released undrafted free agent rookie wide receiver Muhsin Muhammad III with a waived/injured designation. They have re-signed wide receiver T.J. Luther to fill his spot on the team’s 90-man roster.

Muhammad, the son of former Panther great Muhsin “Moose” Muhammad II, was an intriguing prospect out of Texas A&M. He had relatively small production in college but flashed traits and a work ethic that had coaches both in college and with the Panthers optimistic about his pro prospects. He appears to have suffered an unspecified injury during voluntary...

Brian Asks: Pre-Memorial Day Mailbag!

Bring us all of your questions in this week’s Panthers fan mailbag!

Hello CSR! Welcome to Brian Asks, your weekly Panthers fan mailbag for everyone! We’re marching on into the summer as the slow season of football is upon us. Not a whole lot going on in the world of the NFL, short of ruling on plays that teams who can’t run them (ahem, Bills) don’t want teams that can run them effectively to be able to run anymore. Nothing gets me more fired up for football quite like changing the rules!

You all know the drill, comment down below...

Panthers Reacts Survey: Let’s get hyped for the 2025 schedule

Gauging where our excitement lies for the coming season

The regular season schedule for the Carolina Panthers was released last week and has given fans a lot to chew over before the season opens on September 7th. That opener is going to be huge in a lot of ways, but I don’t consider it to be the most exciting game on the Panthers schedule. There are too many questions about Bryce Young’s development, the new talent on defense, and Dave Canales’ second year for the season opener to be anything other than nerve-wracking for me.

The rest of the schedule,...

Which college football conferences produced the most players on the Panthers roster?

Which college football conferences produced the most players on the Panthers roster?

The Panthers roster may contain more players from a local conference - and a local Carolina school - than you may think.

As Carolina Panthers fans many of us are also heavily invested in college football. College football rivalries persist among competing schools and their fans year round, but so do the rivalries across conferences.

Generally speaking, the SEC is the self-appointed king of college football and would like to reinforce that notion by limiting as many non-SEC teams as possible from competing against them in the College Football Playoffs. The Big Ten has a small number of elite schools...

Previewing the Panthers schedule: Weeks 13 through 18

Previewing the Panthers schedule: Weeks 13 through 18

The Panthers get a much needed bye week and a chance to make hay in the division during the home stretch.

The Carolina Panthers schedule can be divided into three segments, both because 18 is divisible by three and because there are three distinct segments that each have a common thread running through them. The first segment of the season is the easiest and gives the Panthers a chance at some early momentum. They’ll need it for the middle portion of the schedule, which features a handful of Super Bowl contenders. That bleeds into the home stretch of the season,...

Previewing the Panthers schedule: Weeks 7 through 12

The Panthers follow an easy stretch of schedule with an equally brutal one.

The Carolina Panthers schedule can be divided into three segments, both because 18 is divisible by three and because there are three distinct segments that each have a common thread running through them. The first segment of the season is the easiest and gives the Panthers a chance at some early momentum. That momentum will be vital to help them through the next stretch of the season, which is almost as difficult as the first part is easy.

First, here are the games:

We bring you another edition of our answers portion of this week’s fan mailbag!

Hello CSR! Welcome to Brian Answers, part two of your weekly Panthers fan mailbag for everyone!
