The Panthers lost their leading tackler to Tampa Bay — and might have upgraded anyway. In this Keep Pounding Podcast camp preview, we break down all seven inside linebackers on the 90-man roster, led by the new signal-caller of the defense: Devin Lloyd.

Lloyd picked off FIVE passes for Jacksonville last season and signed a three-year, $45 million deal to run Ejiro Evero's defense from the middle. Next to him should be Trevin Wallace, who was on a breakout pace before shoulder surgery ended his 2025 — but he's had a second procedure and isn't cleared for contact yet, which makes his camp ramp-up the biggest health watch on defense. We also cover Claudin Cherelus, who started the playoff game and led the team in tackles in it, plus special teams stalwart Maema Njongmeta, seventh-round flier Jackson Kuwatch, and Gamecock great Bam Martin-Scott fighting for a spot.

WHAT'S IN THIS VIDEO:

• The Devin Lloyd signing and coverage upgrade
• Wallace's injury timeline and outlook
• Cherelus, Njongmeta and the depth picture
• Kuwatch and the rookie fliers
