Evansville, IN, October 30, 2026 — The Carolina Panthers have made a significant change to their coaching staff, announcing the dismissal of defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero. This decision follows the team’s recent 27-19 defeat at the hands of the Green Bay Packers.

The firing of Evero marks a shift in leadership for the Panthers’ defense. The specific date of the firing was not immediately provided, nor were further details regarding the circumstances surrounding the decision beyond the outcome of the game against Green Bay.

Evero had been a key figure in the Panthers’ defensive strategy. The team’s performance in the game against the Packers, which resulted in a loss, appears to be the immediate catalyst for this coaching change.

The score of the game, 27-19 in favor of the Green Bay Packers, highlights the on-field outcome that preceded the organizational decision. No information was provided regarding who will assume the responsibilities of defensive coordinator in the interim or permanently.

Further updates are expected as the Carolina Panthers navigate this coaching transition. The team’s future defensive plans and the impact of this change on upcoming games remain subjects of interest.
