CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Carolina Panthers open the 2025 NFL regular season at the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sept. 7 at EverBank Stadium.
The 2024 offense is back, with the biggest addition being first-round pick Tetairoa McMillan as the new No. 1 receiver for quarterback Bryce Young in his pivotal third year. Rebuilding the defense that ranked last in the NFL in most major statistical categories last season has been the biggest undertaking.
There will be as many as seven new starters, plus the return of Pro Bowl defensive lineman Derrick Brown, who missed the final 16 games in 2024 with a torn meniscus.
