According to NFL Network\u2019s Tom Pelissero, the Carolina Panthers are hiring Darrell Bevell as Associate Head Coach and Offensive Specialist.<\/p>\n
The Panthers haven\u2019t made any changes to the staff prior to this, so it appears Bevell is a pure addition to the group. Dave Canales will continue to call plays and Brad Idzik is still the offensive coordinator, so I guess Bevell will just kinda help out and give them ideas and stuff. It\u2019s hard to know for sure with all these different job titles teams make up for guys. It\u2019ll be a reunion for several of the Panthers brass. Bevell overlapped with Canales and Dan Morgan in Seattle from 2011 to 2017. And we all know in the NFL, if you have a chance to give an old pal a job, you give an old pal a job.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s probably not the most inspiring hire based on past results. Bevell has been an offensive coordinator for 15 seasons, and the last several of those probably damaged his reputation. If it\u2019s any consolation, in each of the last two seasons that he started as offensive coordinator, he finished as interim head coach. I guess that says something about how he\u2019s perceived within the buildings that he works. He spent the last four years in Miami working as their quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator. His experience with Tua Tagovailoa and Russell Wilson should make him well equipped to work with Bryce Young.<\/p>\n
From the outside, we probably won\u2019t see a whole lot of difference with Bevell on the staff. He\u2019s likely here to take a little bit off the plate of Canales, who\u2019s trying to balance play calling duties with other head coaching responsibilities on game days. It\u2019s also another voice that presumably has a similar mind set that can bring some fresh perspective to the offensive meeting rooms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"According to NFL Network\u2019s Tom Pelissero, the Carolina Panthers are hiring Darrell Bevell as Associate Head Coach and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":751354,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2075],"tags":[235,260,2584,2567,7,6,236],"class_list":{"0":"post-751353","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-carolina-panthers","8":"tag-carolina","9":"tag-carolina-panthers","10":"tag-carolina-panthers-news","11":"tag-carolinapanthers","12":"tag-football","13":"tag-nfl","14":"tag-panthers"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116068453150070071","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/751353","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=751353"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/751353\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/751354"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=751353"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=751353"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=751353"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
