It was a weird weekend for the Panthers’ safeties.
A backup linebacker played 26 snaps at strong safety Friday against the Patriots. The front office brought in several safeties Saturday for workouts, including 10-year veteran Donte Whitner.

“Honestly, I love the group of guys that we have,” free safety Kurt Coleman said. “I’m excited with what we have here. And if the front office sees fit and they bring someone in, they do.
