The Carolina Panthers can be seeking to enhance upon their dismal 2023 NFL marketing campaign as soon as the 2024 NFL season kicks off.
The Panthers completed with the worst document in 2023, although it’d’ve been anticipated contemplating the porous state of their offense.
Whereas Bryce Younger represents a uncommon brilliant spot on the roster, the group didn’t set him up nicely for fulfillment because the receiving corps and offensive line had been poor.
Nonetheless, the group did make some main offensive enhancements via free company and the 2024 NFL Draft so Younger is now in a greater spot to point out what he can do on the sector.
Whereas Carolina did lose its first preseason recreation towards the New England Patriots, their core group of gamers didn’t play.
Rookie kicker Harrison Mevis managed to attain the one Panthers’ factors, however he was waived by the group afterward through the group’s official Twitter account.

After waiving Mevis, Carolina introduced they signed deal with Tyler Smith in his place.
With Mevis now not on the roster, the Panthers are set to roll with veteran kicker Eddy Pineiro who’s the lone remaining kicker.
Pineiro has hit on 89 p.c of his area objectives and 91 p.c on further factors, wonderful numbers and doubtless why Carolina felt comfy releasing Mevis.
This transfer doubtless has little consequence for the Panthers throughout the 2024 season as all eyes can be on the offense and Younger’s improvement in his second 12 months.
Particular groups appear locked into place now, so it’ll be fascinating to see how the offense and protection fare in 2024.
