The Carolina Panthers' defensive fortunes were rocked before the team even took to the field for their first training camp practice. This must provoke second-year general manager Dan Morgan into drastic and decisive action.
Morgan cannot go into the campaign with Trevin Wallace and Christian Rozeboom as his starting tandem after Josey Jewell's shock release. Last year's third-round pick has promise, but there are glaring holes in his game that must be rectified before confidence increases from a starting capacity.
Rozeboom, a free-agent signing this spring, has a previous connection to defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero from their time together on the Los Angeles Rams.
