Carolina Panthers Fans had only the second full preview of their team this summer on Friday evening, when they welcomed the Cleveland Browns for the opening of the pre-season. And now it’s time to take a second glance at this second look.
The NFL finally returning to a real action at stake, we plunged into the film Tout-22 for certain lessons in the 30-10 defeat. Although sloppy sometimes, the panthers turned out to be a physical team, which made their efforts despite the not so soothing results.

We have also learned a few things about a few notable players.
Here is a handful of key dishes in the film. . .
Bobby Brown III could be a huge song in 2025
The defensive coordinator Ejiro Everro had worked without a real nose tackle during his previous two years in Caroline. It has changed, now that the panthers have added Rams of Los Angeles The defensive line player Bobby Brown III.
The 6 -foot 4 inch and 332 pounds should end up being a significant upgrade for this defense of the panthers, which allowed a competition of 79.8 yards on the ground of the League (by far) in 2024. It has the capacity to take double teams and can be effective on the passes, as evidenced by its five pressures at the head of the team on Friday.

Brown has shown its power, speed and penetration skills throughout the competition. . .
Austin Corbett has his head in the central battle
The battle for the work of the departure center between Austin Corbett and Cade Mays could be the greatest of all in Caroline this summer. Friday, Corbett showed why he was currently listed as the first shooter.
Corbett may have already returned in shape after missing 12 games last season due to a biceps injury. He was consistent to reset his hands and base if necessary, well anchoring well in Stonewall Interior rushes.
Mays is a good engine for its size and will intimidate the defenders as he chooses. There were cases where he contained stunting / torsion games at the front, emphasizing the anchoring and placement of the hands. However, there were times when the defenders managed to attack his external shoulder, and he lost a representative or two in the process.

This should be a competitive fight until the end, but Corbett has the head and may not look back.
Nic Scourton flashes a potential
2025 Pick of third round Nic Scourton shone, eating space with impressive speed and movement skills in the open field.
There were times when he played out of control in his rushes, but he still exaggerated the pressure. The Recruit outside secondary displays exceptional efforts and prosecution capacities, as evidenced by his hunting bag in the quarter-arre of the Browns Sheder Sanders.
Although there will be a learning curve for the 21 -year -old future, the explosiveness and the power of Scourton already translate.
Last non -draft gem of Dan Morgan
The former corner half of Louisville, Corey Thornton, was one of the out -of -competition recruits in the Panthers training camp this summer. He really forced himself to put himself in the foreground last week, to replace the starter Jaycee Horn at Fest Fest and in this exhibition outing.

Thornton has a good size and a good length at 6 feet 1 inch and has the physical temperament which could be useful in man to men’s looks. He is physical in the cover, especially the press man, although some false steps sometimes cost him.
One of the highlights of the night came from a end of Cleveland in the second quarter – where Thornton accelerated the descent, ecored, then picked up and threw the pallion on the ground.
Fast strikers
-
Jalen Coker ready to be the n ° 2 objective on this infraction Panthers. His ball skills, his football information and his highway race broke out significantly, including during a reception of a touch of 5 yards.
-
The seconds inside Trevin Wallace and Christian Rozeboom will benefit from Caroline upgrades on the defensive line. Wallace, for example, was able to collect a racing stop In the first quarter, when the inner front swallowed double teams to help release the B-GAP.
-
With the offensive coordinator Brad Idzik Calling Plays last night, the rate, communication and trends of the game call were radically different. In short, it was an approach to “vanilla” on Friday evening, which could partly explain the drop in the game of the first team to the second team unit.
-
The same can be said for the defense of Evero, which was called by the coordinator of the defensive passenger games Jonathan Cooley. Like the offense, the defense had different trends, rates, calls and more. However, the similarities between the two units illustrated a physical football brand during the four quarters, despite the eruption.
-
Not the news that Demani Richardson fans wanted to hear, but second -year security still has a lot of room for improvement. He took bad angles at the ball and was responsible for the abandonment of a few big games. He can lose ground against 2025 Pick of fourth round Lathan Ransom and the veteran Nick Scott, one of the two current starters in the position.
