The Panthers started the same two defensive tackles this past season as they did the season before that, and barring an inability to re-sign Kawann Short in the offseason, that is not expected to change. KK will line up along side of Star Lotulelei to form as fearsome a DT pairing as any in the league. Should Short depart, 2016 1st round pick Vernon Butler will likely step into the role he vacates. Rounding out the roster is disappointing free agent acquisition Paul Soliai, and veteran stalwart Kyle Love.
