The Story in 60 Seconds

The Carolina Panthers have hired former Pro Bowl cornerback DeAngelo Hall as their new cornerbacks coach for a second stint with the franchise. Hall replaces Jonathan Cooley as part of a defensive staff shakeup led by interim defensive coordinator Todd Wash, who took over after the team dismissed defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero.
