NFL Head Coach Tracker: Panthers Chase Lamar Jackson’s OC & 9 Others

The Carolina Panthers’ race to get a reliable head coach is underway. In the long list of virtual interviews, they have also locked their eyes on Lamar Jackson’s offensive coordinator, Todd Monken. The Panthers have shortlisted nine names who can don the new rule of the Panther’s HC.

In desperate need of revival, the Panthers need to consider the best in the league, and that’s where Todd Monken’s role holds the utmost importance. The Ravens have won the most games (13) this season, and the offense has been breathing fire all year. The choice is obvious, and the Carolina Panthers themselves shared the news.

The Panthers are in the hunt for a reliable HC

The team has won only two games this season, making it the worst one since the team’s inception. Despite changing five coaches in the past five years, the team hasn’t made it to the playoffs once. The Panthers’ decision to choose Chris Tabor as the interim HC in the middle of the season hasn’t produced better results. In urgent need of a revamp, the Panthers have conducted virtual interviews. The Panthers posted about the same on X.

The Panthers informed their fanbase, “Panthers complete three more interviews for head coaching vacancy.” Other than Raven’s OC, their defensive coordinator, Mike MacDonald, and the Panthers’ defensive coordinator, Ejiro Evaro, have completed the interviews. The teams can only conduct virtual interviews until January 22, and the Panthers must complete talks with six more coaches.

Who else is in contention for the Panther HC position

on Jan 8, the Panthers front office released the list of nine coaches that included the above-mentioned names. The Lions’ OC Ben Johnson, the Texans’ OC Bobby Slowik, the Bengals’ OC Brian Callahan, the Dolphins’ OC Frank Smith, and the Bucs’ offensive OC Dave Canales. Other than OCs, DCs of the Cowboys and the Rams have also been shortlisted.
