Panthers make major change after their latest loss

This marks a rather swift fall from grace for Evero. The Panthers considered him a big get when they hired him in 2023, and he has been viewed as a future head coach. He was a finalist for the Las Vegas Raiders job last offseason that ultimately went to Klint Kubiak.

The Panthers felt obligated to make a change amid their defensive struggles. They are 27th in points allowed and have particularly struggled to stop the run, giving up 4.8 yards per carry to opponents this season.

Evero should land on his feet, but for now, the Panthers are making significant changes. At 3-4, head coach Dave Canales might sweat his own future if things don’t pick up.
