Panthers facing a lot of big changes for a playoff team
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- You don’t typically see a lot of offseason change on a team that has reached the playoffs four out of five seasons, including a trip to the Super Bowl.
The Carolina Panthers aren’t in a typical situation.
They will enter the 2018 season with a new owner, a new offensive coordinator, a new quarterbacks coach and probably a new defensive coordinator.
Team owner Jerry Richardson, under investigation for workplace misconduct, officially put the team up for sale after Sunday’s 31-26 loss to the New Orleans Saints in the first round of the playoffs. Among those interested in buying the team is NBA superstar Stephen Curry, a Charlotte native.
Again, not typical.
