The Carolina Panthers need to find a new pass rusher to build their defense around and these 3 prospects made their case to be selected early.

Carolina Panthers president of football operations/general manager Dan Morgan and head coach Dave Canales held a little court from the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine on Tuesday. And, as expected, they touched on a number of topics—including free agency, the draft and the state of the current roster.

The Carolina Panthers have openings at kicker and punter, and the team is keeping its options open at both positions. But the draft and undrafted free agency might be the way to go to save money for other notable needs.
