The Carolina Panthers may be working with deep pockets while assembling a new coaching staff, but that’s not exactly how it works when it comes to building a roster.
As the salary cap situation currently sits, the Panthers are approximately $9.5 million in the red—accounting for the 12th-lowest amount in the NFL. And while they will get some help from a massive league-wide cap increase and about $10.7 million in unused 2022 space, they’ll still have to move some numbers around to improve their on-field personnel.
