New head coach Dave Canales and new general manager Dan Morgan have stolen all Carolina Panthers-related headlines over the last few days with their introductory press conference that included powerful quotes and the news that Ejiro Evero is expected to stay on as defensive coordinator.

Those two are seen as the guiding forces for that revival, but the team made another hire late in the afternoon the day prior that is going to have equally large ramifications on the future of the team.
