In April’s draft, Panthers’ GM Dan Morgan added an edge rusher in both the second and third round. The latter was on display vs. Houston, and got a so-so grade.

In Saturday's preseason win, Houston Texans running back Nick Chubb was one of nine players who lived up to the hype in a victort over Carolina.

Thursday night's preseason finale will give the Panthers one of their last chances to evaluate and shape their initial roster.

An NFL analyst looked at every team and predicted when it would be handed its first loss of the season. He didn’t waste much time when it came to the Panthers.

They are part of the reason fellow Carolina Panthers wide receiver Adam Thielen looks forward to coming to work every day. They are among the first things fans on social media mention, even when the 2024 first-round pick out of South Carolina had to explain being ejected from the Panthers' first preseason game for fighting.

On the opening play, Bryce Young overshot second-year receiver Xavier Leggette, leading to an easy interception by All-Pro cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. He returned it 31 yards, setting up the Texans' offense inside Carolina's 30. The only problem? Will Anderson was called for a holding penalty against Chubba Hubbard.

The Carolina Panthers might have two of their starters back for the beginning of the 2025 campaign. After a fiery finish to training camp on Tuesday, head coach Dave Canales was asked about the statuses of tight end Tommy Tremble and left guard Damien Lewis. He started with Tremble, who is on track to suit for up Week 1 of the regular season.

The Panthers returned to practice on Monday. Dave Canales offered updates on injuries, the preseason finale against Pittsburgh and more.

As the preseason finale and cutdown day near, Texans fans have plenty of questions about potential roster moves. Jonathan M. Alexander provides answers.
