Panthers news: What impact can Pat Stewart have in Carolina?

How can Pat Stewart help the Panthers?
When it comes to spotting a player who can make an instant impact, there are few better to have on your side than Pat Stewart. Whether it be via free agency or the NFL Draft, the newest member of the Carolina Panthers’ staff has bundles of experience and knows what it takes to win in the NFL.
Winning is something that hasn’t been the most familiar of feeling in Carolina. But the Panthers news regarding Stewart is another real statement of intent from a team that has substantial plans to improve both on and off the field in the coming years.
This is going to take time, as all rebuilds do. One thing head coach Matt Rhule can get from Stewart is a particular strategy surrounding the implementation of a successful franchise and act accordingly.
Stewart is no stranger to Rhule’s system, so he will know exactly the sort of players needed. The new hire is going to be working closely with the head coach and general manager Marty Hurney on all player-related matters and this can only be a good thing for their future prospects.
Getting Stewart away from his head of national scouting role with the Philadelphia Eagles can be seen as something of a coup. The respected figure has seen it all behind the scenes in the NFL. This can also be of assistance with a young roster and coaching staff who are all acclimatizing at the same time in 2020.
While the Panthers news regarding any immediate accolades might be regarded as slim. They are forming a stable foundation from which to build and this has been strengthened with Stewart’s arrival.
