The Buccaneers will host the Panthers in an NFC South clash in Week 18 to conclude the 2025 slate. Last season, the Panthers finished with a 5-12 record after two overtime victories in the final three weeks. Bryce Young emerged during the second half of the season and after the Panthers surrendered a league-worst 31.4 points per game in 2024, the club added defensive talent in the second round of the draft in edge Nic Scourton and in the third round with edge Princely Umanmielen. Carolina added another weapon for Young in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft with Arizona phenom Tetairoa McMillan. The Buccaneers will aim to once again remain atop the hierarchy in the NFC South, and an intradivision victory over the Panthers would help.
