Panthers HC Dave Canales explained why the team is keeping DC Ejiro Evero, even after a historically-bad campaign.

One staff member that a lot of Panthers fans are wondering about is defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero. Carolina finished the regular season ranked dead last in total defense, but Dave Canales said that Evero will be back next year.

According to head coach Dave Canales, the Carolina Panthers will not be looking for a new defensive coordinator this offseason. Yesterday's feel-good win in the 2024 season finale featured a bit of feel-bad history,

Quarterback Bryce Young led his Panthers to a 44-38 overtime win over the Atlanta Falcons to close out their 2024 season on Sunday. The second-year passer had himself a career day, throwing for 251 yards and three touchdowns while running for 24 yards and two more scores.

Ejiro Evero has managed to become a regular HC candidate despite coaching on struggling teams. He received tremendous interest after a 5-12 Broncos season, and teams also pursued him after he was part of a 2-15 Panthers team.
