6 jobs that could be up for grabs at the start of Panthers' 2026 OTAs
The Carolina Panthers are set to begin their organized team activities (OTAs), where several key positions may be contested. Notably, the competition for the No. 3 wide receiver spot and left tackle position is heating up. With new signings and draft picks, the team's initial roster could see significant changes as players vie for starting roles.
- ▪Xavier Legette's performance has declined, leading to competition for the No. 3 WR position from John Metchie III and Chris Brazzell II.
- ▪Ikem Ekwonu is expected to miss time, creating an opportunity at left tackle for both Rasheed Walker and rookie Monroe Freeling.
- ▪The Panthers' OTAs will provide insight into the potential starting lineup for the upcoming season.
