Carolina Panthers fire head coach Matt Rhule

The Carolina Panthers under head coach Matt Rhule had a record of 11-27.

Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network was first with the news.

Defensive Passing Game Coordinator and Secondary Coach Steve Wilks, who had a 3-13 record as the Arizona Cardinals’ head coach in 2018, will take over as interim head coach.
