CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers linebacker Brian Burns said after the 2023 season the new head coach should not "touch the defense'' at all, and Dave Canales has done his best to make that happen.
Defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero and most of his staff will return for the 2024 season, a league source confirmed to ESPN.com on Monday.
The team hasn't formally announced the decision, but Canales said Thursday at his introductory press conference that he expected Evero to stay.
"This is a huge piece of what we're doing,'' Canales said during the news conference.
