Dan Morgan worked tirelessly to improve the defense this offseason. Things look a lot more promising for the Carolina Panthers, but there are still a few glaring problems that could hold them back.
Depth remains an issue in certain positions. The cornerback room could use one more capable performer, as could the safety unit. But the linebacking corps is much more urgent after the stunning release of veteran Josey Jewell.
The Panthers were forced to cut ties with Jewell after his medical assessments revealed that he was still dealing with concussion symptoms seven months after sustaining the complication against the Arizona Cardinals.
