CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Getting a final look at potential NFL prospects Saturday, Dave Canales patrolled the two practice fields behind Bank of America Stadium.
When the Carolina Panthers threw their big curveball in the first round of the draft by taking Tetairoa McMillan over Jalon Walker, our first reaction was that it was great news for Bryce Young and the Carolina passing game - but not so great for last year's first-round pick, Xavier Legette.
The Carolina Panthers made a lot of additions to their defense this offseason as the team looks to improve on that side of the ball. But Carolina also made a significant subtraction in recent days.

The Panthers explored a trade of Jadeveon Clowney before the draft, but nothing came about on that front. Given the team’s rookie additions, though, the possibility remained the veteran edge rusher would be let go after only one season in Carolina.
The Carolina Panthers desperately needed to improve their pass rush after just one player on the entire team logged more than five sacks in 2024. Then just this week the team decided to release their best pass rusher from last season in Jadeveon Clowney.
This offseason, Panthers’ general manager Dan Morgan addressed all aspects of a defensive unit that was the worst in the league this past season. One of the big problems was fixing a pass rush that had produced a mere 59 sacks in the team’s last 34 games.
The Carolina Panthers had an impressive draft, adding talent to both sides of the ball, and they added to their draft class with several UDFA signings.
The Carolina Panthers put together a surprisingly good 2025 NFL draft. The core of it was a big upgrade at wide receiver in the first round and doubling down on a strong class on the edge with their next two picks.
One of many major bummers during the 2024 season for the Carolina Panthers came when rookie running back Jonathon Brooks went down with a torn ACL. Brooks had only recently joined the lineup after sitting out most of his first NFL season recovering from another ACL tear to the same knee during his Senior year at Texas.
New recruits for the Carolina Panthers took the field yesterday for the first day of rookie minicamp. It's also the first time that Carolina fans have gotten to see any real local football since January.
