Assistant Coaches Promoted

INDIANAPOLIS – Several members of the Panthers coaching staff will have new titles for the 2016 season.

"They are promotions, and the guys have all earned them," head coach Ron Rivera said Friday at the NFL Scouting Combine. "This is an opportunity to really define roles."

John Matsko, who had served as Carolina's offensive line coach since 2011, has been promoted to running game coordinator. Ray Brown, who had served as Mastko's assistant the past five seasons, has been promoted to offensive line coach.

Richard Rodgers and Curtis Fuller remain assistant defensive backs coaches, but Rodgers will focus on the safeties.
