The Carolina Panthers have an extensive list of coaching candidates to interview. Previously, they conducted interviews with several coordinators for the role, such as Tua Tagovailoa’s OC and Todd Monken. They have now expanded their list of completed interviews by adding Bobby Slowik.

After firing head coach Frank Reich in November of last year, Panthers owner David Tepper stated that he wants someone who can stay with the team for “20, 30 years.” Therefore, they immediately began searching for a suitable head coach for the team. This time it was Slowik’s turn.

Bobby Slowik’s interview is done!

The Panthers have completed a virtual interview with Houston Texans offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik. He has a background in the Shanahan coaching tree, having transitioned from defense to offense during his time with the 49ers.

With the Houston Texans, Bobby Slowik played a key role in the development of rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud, who achieved a Top 10 league finish in total passing (63.9%) and passing yards (4,108 yards) per game with just 5 interceptions. Besides Slowik, the Carolina Panthers also interviewed Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan virtually on the same day, i.e., on Thursday.

What’s next for the Carolina Panthers?

The Panthers have requested permission to interview nine coaches as per their list. Till now, they have interviewed seven candidates from the list. These seven are Bobby Slowik, Brian Callahan, Dan Quinn, Mike Macdonald, Frank Smith, Raheem Morris, and Todd Monken.

They are now left with two other candidates. One is Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson and the other is Buccaneers offensive coordinator Dave Canales. Apart from the list, they have also interviewed their interim coach, Chris Tabor, and defensive coordinator, Ejiro Evero.
