Panthers grant Ex-Jaguars coach Todd Wash a golden opportunity to boost his stock

The Carolina Panthers have promoted Todd Wash to interim defensive coordinator following the dismissal of Ejiro Evero after a Thursday Night Football loss to the Green Bay Packers. The move gives the former Jacksonville Jaguars defensive coordinator an opportunity to showcase his coaching abilities and potentially secure the position on a permanent basis.

Writer Carlos Sanchez argues that Evero may have been made a scapegoat for Carolina's 3-4 start. Sanchez notes that while Wash experienced success during Jacksonville's 2016-2019 era, he previously struggled after losing star talent and faced challenges developing younger players prior to his departure in 2020.
