#Panthers notebook: - No more Victory Mondays? - Canales takes Sunday’s loss “personal” - Pre-game vibes were off - Maturity of being a pro athlete - And some numbers worth understanding www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

The #Panthers largest passing completion of the season was for 40 yards against AZ. It came on a catch-and-run play by Tetairoa McMillan and Bryce Young. There are 39 QBs with longer completions on the season, including Justin Fields, Jacoby Brissett, Jaxson Dart and Cam Ward.

New Orleans just wrote the script for everyone else. But if you’ve been paying attention all season, you probably already figured it out. When the #Panthers can’t run, they don’t have enough in the pass game to compensate. Takeaways from a loss: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

The #Panthers won’t call it a trap game but they clearly got caged by the Saints in a 17-7 loss at home. No more bits (for now), good vibes are blemished and the passing game needs to figure itself out and soon. Takeaways: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

Beautiful day. Obligatory: “Well, I’m here.”

An update on today’s 53-man roster move: I’m told Harrison-Hunte had interest from an AFC team, and the #Panthers didn’t want to lose him, so they promoted him before he could be poached.

#Panthers WR Dan Chisena will get the chance to make his 2025 debut on Sunday. He’s beaten the odds and had one of the more unusual paths to an NFL career. A story from last year on the special teams ace: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

The #Panthers have waived QB Mike White and promoted undrafted rookie DT Jared Harrison-Hunte from the p-squad. They have also elevated WR Dan Chisena from the p-squad for the game.

“Derrick Brown and A’Shawn Robinson are always catching me and telling me to get the hell off the cart, and I be having to walk.” Some traditions aren’t for everybody. But hey, that’s life as a #Panthers rookie. How first-year players pay their dues: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

Injuries have turned the #Panthers OL into a turnstile. And yet, the unit has stayed the course because of several depth players stepping up. More on the latest mystery man to prove his worth in a big moment: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

“Every opponent is a Super Bowl game. This team is something special, and we goin’ to ride out there.” It’d be easy to have a letdown against a lesser team at home after the biggest win in 6-7 years. But the #Panthers know they can’t overlook anyone: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

Tre’von Moehrig was the crown jewel of the #Panthers’ free agency class in March. Last week against the Packers, he showed you why Dan Morgan and Dave Canales wanted him. Now, he’s won an award that has eluded Carolina safeties for over a decade: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

#Panthers final injury report: Tetairoa McMillan (hamstring) Limited Questionable   Brycen Tremayne (hip) Full Questionable   Chandler Zavala (elbow) Out

RB Rico Dowdle is back working at practice. #Panthers

Ever wonder why #Panthers rookies have to walk to practice every day? Some notable members of the 2025 draft class aren’t fond of the rule. But vets and former players believe it’s an important tradition. The why and how: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

The Carolina Panthers finally made the adult move — standing pat at the NFL trade deadline. @mikekayefootball.bsky.social joined the pod to discuss. linktr.ee/ogtriangleme...

#Panthers DC Ejiro Evero sends his condolences to the family of Marshawn Kneeland and the Cowboys after hearing the news of his passing. Evero spent time with him during the draft process. Evero brought up Kneeland unprompted with his opening statement.

It's not everyone's favorite tradition at Bank of America Stadium. Kicking a game-winning field goal or leading the team in receiving yards doesn't absolve you from it. A #Panthers custom that dates back to the most recent glory days of the franchise: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

#Panthers QB Bryce Young, who is an investor in the NWSL's Portland Thorns FC, is joining the NWSL's new advisory board. The board is meant to "accelerate the league's growth," according to a release. Sue Bird, Elizabeth Banks, Eli Manning and Ken Griffey Jr. also on board.

Austin Corbett will be RG moving forward, per Dave Canales. #Panthers

#Panthers injury report: Rico Dowdle (quad) - DNP Damien Lewis (oblique) - FP Cade Mays (ankle / knee) - FP Lathan Ransom (illness) - LP Princely Umanmielen (ankle) - FP Chandler Zavala (elbow) - DNP

Tre’von Moehrig becomes first #Panthers safety to earn national honor since 2014: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

Princely Umanmielen and Cade Mays are back at practice for #Panthers

#Panthers DB Tre’von Moehrig was named the NFC Defensive Player of the Week for his performance against Green Bay. This is from the FREE Access Panthers Newsletter (sign up with the link) on Monday: t.co/yCWlBbNst5

It’ll be interesting to see how/if Samuel appeals to the #Panthers. He doesn’t fit the size dynamics that Evero typically subscribes to, but like Chau Smith-Wade, Tre’von Moehrig and Lathan Ransom, he has a skill set that can be used in multiple spots.

The #Panthers are hosting former #Chargers CB Asante Samuel today for a visit, a league source tells @charlotteobserver.com.

We’re back! On the latest episode of the Processing Blue podcast, @alexzietlow05.bsky.social and I discuss the lack of activity at the trade deadline, the big win over the Packers, and the #Panthers’ upcoming battle against the Saints. 🎧👂: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

Following the biggest win of the Dave Canales era, it’d be easy for the #Panthers to have a letdown against the 1-8 Saints. But in speaking to the Carolina crew, the “something special” vibes aren’t swaying their commitment to the weekly grind: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

The #Panthers have oil changed the practice squad: Released QB Hendon Hooker, OLB Boogie Basham and OL Michael Tarquin.   Signed OL Ja’Tyre Carter, RB DeeJay Dallas and S Israel Mukuamu.

A rundown of what you need to know about the #Panthers before the 2025 NFL trade deadline (via @alexzietlow05.bsky.social and me): www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

Gee, it’d sure be terrific to be able to watch Monday Night Football tonight

Former #Panthers LB Frankie Luvu has been suspended for a game:

If you adhere to the QB wins stat, Bryce Young has the opportunity to earn his sixth win as a starter this season against the Saints (1-8) in Week 10. He came into the year with six wins as a starter in the two previous years combined. #Panthers

Bryce Young was sacked once (for 0 yards). Rico Dowdle ran for 130 yards and averaged 5.2 yards per carry. The #Panthers were able to pull off an improbable win over the Packers with a mystery man playing multiple OL positions. More on Jake Curhan: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

The #Panthers have as many wins in Week 9 as they had in all of 2024 because of a 16-13 upset win over the #Packers. Takeaways from a victory that featured a defensive masterclass and a Rico Dowdle train that won't stop: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

The #Panthers have more than double the wins they had in 2023. They have as many wins as they had in all of 2024. It’s Week 9 in 2025.

Xavier Legette (evaluated for concussion) questionable to return. #Panthers

In the first quarter of his ninth NFL game, Tetairoa McMillan (544) has passed Jonathan Mingo (539) on the #Panthers all-time receiving yards list.

With Princely Umanmielen down, I'd expect Trevis Gipson to play the third OLB role with Thomas Incoom peppered in. Jeremiah Moon, an elevated PS player, will probably play more of the special teams side of things based on his background with the Steelers and Ravens. #Panthers

Taylor Moton isn't inactive, but Yosh Nijman is expected to start in his place at RT. Moton is likely a "break in case of emergency" option.

#Panthers inactives: QB Mike White (emergency third QB) OLB Princely Umanmielen (injured) WR Hunter Renfrow C Cade Mays (injured) TE James Mitchell DT Cam Jackson

Still can't get over that Game 7 last night. Baseball is very much alive, even if the Dodgers are essentially the Empire. The thrill of the chase of the Dodgers will be like a babyface in wrestling chasing his first world title against the unbeatable heel. That's good for the sport.

Grandma would probably say: “Well, you’re here.”

The #Panthers want to keep Packers RB Emanuel Wilson from having a big day. The Charlotte native has found a role in Green Bay after a winding road from North Meck to a pair of HBCUs to a three days with the Broncos to the Packers in 2023. His story: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

Predicting #Panthers vs. Packers today: www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/c...

The #Panthers have activated G Chandler Zavala (knee) from IR. RB DeeJay Dallas was released in a corresponding move (not subject to waivers). The team also elevated OLB Jeremiah Moon from the practice squad for the game.
