Letter from Jerry Richardson

The team made a number of moves prior to Back Together Saturday, adding some depth at positions of need on both sides of the ball.

The Panthers turned over a lot of personnel this offseason, which means they're still learning what they'll look like on defense this year. But the changes might not stop with the people involved.

Bryce Young has a new offense, under a new staff, but he's also learning new receivers, like Diontae Johnson. It's a chemistry that will take a while to build, thanks to the unique way Johnson moves. 

The team signed former Buccaneers receiver and return man Deven Thompkins on Thursday, adding another player with familiarity with Dave Canales and his offensive staff.
