Pro Football Focus identified the Carolina Panthers' tight end position as their biggest roster need heading into training camp. The Panthers do not have any players in the top 32 tight ends rankings, which raises concerns about their offensive capabilities. Last season's tight end production was lackluster, with no player recording at least 400 receiving yards in six consecutive seasons. As the team aims to maximize the potential of quarterback Bryce Young, addressing the tight end position may be crucial for their performance this season.
