Panthers prepare for matchup against Broncos amid roster changes
Summary

The Carolina Panthers host the Denver Broncos on November 12 for a Week 9 matchup. The Panthers, currently 3-4, are coming off a coaching shakeup after firing defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero, with Todd Wash stepping in as interim DC. Quarterback Bryce Young has shown improvement this season, passing for 13 touchdowns, while rookie safety Zakee Wheatley has emerged as a standout on defense. The Panthers aim to bounce back after struggles with their offensive line as they face a Broncos team that leads the AFC West at 6-2 after a recent victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.
