While the 2024 season for the Panthers did not see them return to the postseason, it saw some serious promise from multiple key players, including last year’s number-one overall pick Bryce Young. Former Panthers WR turned NFL Network analyst Steve Smith Sr. joined Kyle Bailey to recap the Panthers season-ending win over the Falcons, and what the upcoming offseason could look like.
The Panthers got to play spoiler against their division foes in the Atlanta Falcons as the loss played a part in Atlanta not making the playoffs as Steve noted that wins like that for a team in the Panthers is a good thing because it shows that multiple players still care when a game technically has nothing riding for them in the immediate future, and it also shows that the foundation of the culture is growing into 2025.
Steve would also go on to break down his outlook for the Panthers offseason and his thoughts on Carolina retaining Ejiro Evero at DC.
