The wild card candidates

The previous four names are the ones with solid reporting attached to them. There are no doubt a number of candidates we don’t know about who are in the running for Ron Rivera’s old job. Assuming Tepper is telling the truth about wanting an offensive coach, we can infer a few candidates who might also be in the race.

Ravens offensive coordinator Greg Roman has done special things with Lamar Jackson this year, but he’s apparently only gotten one request so far and it wasn’t from the Panthers. Vikings offensive coordinator Kevin Stefanski is another popular offensive name going around, but has yet to be connected with the Carolina job.

Interim coach Perry Fewell is also interviewing for the job, but the way the last month went we would be very surprised if he gets hired.
