The Carolina Panthers word of the week is “evaluate.”
“We’re all being evaluated,” said head coach Ron Rivera on Monday, a day after the Panthers’ seventh straight loss. “We’re going to be evaluated for this last game, and we’ll be evaluated for the season.”
Rivera said he knows he’s being evaluated by first-year owner David Tepper. But Rivera said so far, the process is one he has appreciated.
“We’ve sat down, we’ve talked a lot about going forward and the best way to approach things, the best things that you can do in a leadership position,” Rivera said.
