The Carolina Panthers capped off a subpar season with yet another blow. After a year riddled with issues related to a permanent head coach and the squad, it seems their worries are not taking a halt anytime soon. The Panthers will now be facing the repercussions of their actions.

According to the latest updates, the team will find itself slapped with a league violation. So what did the Panthers do?

The Carolina Panthers have come under scrutiny

The Panthers did not have the best of seasons. But now, the violation of the league’s rules is another issue that they need to worry about.

According to reports, the violation is due to the Panthers’ lack of compliance with the training process. CBS Sports’ Jonathan Jones shared a report on Twitter that had fans sighing in disappointment.

Although the team has stated that Tepper underwent the training, the statements have been reportedly refuted by other sources. Panthers fans, who are undoubtedly vexed, had much to say about the issue.

The Carolina Panthers haven’t had the best luck in terms of hiring leading men. The quarterback carousel led to a season of ups and downs – mostly downs.

Reported conversations that garnered attention have also taken place. At present they have reportedly interviewed Jim Caldwell, Steve Wilks, Frank Reich, Ejiro Evero, and Shane Steichen.
