Panthers Get The 3rd-Hardest NFL Schedule

The Carolina Panthers' 2026 season just got real. The NFL schedule release drops this week and Sharp Football's analysis already has Carolina with the 3rd-HARDEST schedule in the entire league. Plus, Bryce Young's fifth-year option was officially picked up for $25.9 million guaranteed in 2027, the cap is tight, rookie minicamp opens this Friday, and Bleacher Report just put a target on this team's back with two of the worst rankings I've seen all offseason.
