The Carolina Panthers have been busy on Zoom over the past few days.
On Thursday night, the team announced they have completed three more virtual interviews with a trio of head-coaching candidates—defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero, Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken and Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald.
Evero is now the second internal candidate to interview, with special teams coordinator and 2023’s interim head coach Chris Tabor having got his shot on Wednesday. The highly-acclaimed 43-year-old play-caller has also reportedly received interest from the Atlanta Falcons—who, according to Joe Person of The Athletic, requested permission to speak with Evero for their own head-coaching vacancy.
Monken and Macdonald, the coordinators for the AFC’s No. 1-seeded Ravens, have a bit of extra time on their hands this weekend during the team’s postseason bye. Both were announced as candidates by the Panthers this past Monday—a list that included nine men in total.
