Ejiro Evero just coordinated the worst defense in the history of the National Football League. In most careers, finishing a calendar year with the worst results your industry has ever seen usually calls for change.

Along with the dubious points record, the Panthers also allowed the most total yards per game (404.5) by a 14.6-yard margin and the most rushing yards per game (179.8) by a 38.4-yard margin. Carolina’s defense in 2023, in their first year under Evero, ranked fourth overall. Evero will be entering the final season of his three-year deal in 2025.

One staff member that a lot of Panthers fans are wondering about is defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero. Carolina finished the regular season ranked dead last in total defense, but Dave Canales said that Evero will be back next year.
