Ron Rivera expressed his hopes just before heading into the offseason that his staff would remain intact, and for the most part, he got his wish.
With the official team announcement of the hiring of Lance Taylor to the wide receivers coach position, the promotion of defensive backs coach Curtis Fuller to secondary coach and the hiring of Jeff Imamura, a former Rams assistant, to defensive backs/nickels coach (Fuller’s former position), the Panthers’ staff is now set for 2017.
The news of Taylor and Fuller was reported by the Observer earlier this week, and the team made the moves official on Thursday morning.
