Carolina Panthers fans brace for a pivotal 2026 season as injuries to Ikem Ekwonu and Taylor Moton cast doubt on the offensive line’s stability. Can Bryce Young rise above the uncertainty and solidify his status as the franchise quarterback, or will questions about offensive depth define the year? The Athletic's Joe Person joins to share insider insights into the team’s most pressing concerns and the optimism surrounding key additions such as Devin Lloyd and Jaelan Phillips.

The conversation focused on Carolina’s revamped linebacker corps, the defense’s transformation under Ejiro Evero, and whether Darren Waller’s durability could finally spark the tight end group. Key themes included the impact of preseason injuries, running back risk with Chuba Hubbard and Jonathon Brooks, and expectations for former first-round pick Xavier Legette. With a surging defense and an offense in flux, the Panthers’ Week 1 matchup against the Chicago Bears promises high stakes and unanswered questions.
