The Carolina Panthers have extended the contract of defensive end Derrick Brown, who is excited about the stability with his DL coaches. Brown's extension signals a positive start for the Panthers' new front-office regime, aiming for stability after multiple coaching changes and trades. Ejiro Evero, the Panthers' defensive coordinator, expresses his gratitude for returning to Carolina and highlights the importance of key additions to the team's defense.
Ejiro Evero has a lot of new people to work with (even if he knows many of them). But with his entire coaching staff back, the extension of Derrick Brown, and a few key additions, he likes what he's heard from his defense so far this offseason. https://t.co/PdH1jHja3y
#Panthers DC Ejiro Evero said he had "a lot of love" for Dane Jackson during his draft process. He still thinks highly of him and his instincts. Jackson still had his number in his phone from the draft process.
Evero excited about keeping Derrick Brown around, since it shows great players getting rewarded. Loves where they start with Robinson, Tuttle, and Brown in run defense. "It doesn't get bigger than that."
Here's the quote from today's offensive player interviews that stuck with me the most, via WR Jacob Bostick that everyone is energized: “For sure. I think the fresh start was nice with the different coaching, the different plays. We’re all really excited with what’s to come.”
#Panthers DC Ejiro Evero says it was an easy decision to return to Carolina, it's an honor to be in the DC position, he and his family enjoy Charlotte and he's grateful D, D and D (Canales, Morgan and Tepper) wanted him back.
Ejiro Evero press conference. "Coming back here, I'm very fortunate that Dave and Dan and Mr. Tepper gave me the opportunity to come back here." Says he's settling in to Charlotte, enjoys working with these players. "That decision was very easy."
