The Carolina Panthers were not going to go quietly into the NFL offseason without making a move. Especially considering one of the core issues with Dave Canales' offense was poor play sequencing, a lack of vertical threat, and a shortage of explosive plays.
Wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan had the most explosive plays by yardage. Still, the lack of those explosives across the board is concerning heading into the third season under Canales' play-calling.
The Panthers made an important hire to their coaching staff to address these issues. One who has a close working relationship with Canales and general manager Dan Morgan and could provide much-needed assistance with play design, sequencing, and creativity.
