Panthers implored to sign 1 of these 5 offensive weapons before OTAs
The Carolina Panthers are considering adding an offensive weapon to support quarterback Bryce Young ahead of the 2026 season. Analyst Kristopher Knox suggests five potential targets, including running backs Najee Harris and Antonio Gibson, as well as tight ends Taysom Hill, Jonnu Smith, and Darren Waller. The Panthers have made some improvements but still need to enhance their tight end position for better offensive performance.
- ▪The Panthers have drafted offensive lineman Monroe Freeling and wide receiver Chris Brazzell II.
- ▪They have not adequately replaced running back Rico Dowdle and lack a quality pass-catching tight end.
- ▪The team's tight end group currently includes Tommy Tremble, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and others.
