There has been plenty of changes on the Carolina Panthers offense during a busy offseason so far, but which players are under the most pressure to perform?

To say it has been a busy offseason of moves relating to the Carolina Panthers offense would be something of an understatement. The franchise has made some bold decisions that could have huge ramifications as to how long their rebuild is going to last.

The Panthers offense looks entirely different as a result. But it is still full of talented playmakers who are capable of making their presence felt on any given down.

How new offensive coordinator Joe Brady gets them all going is going to be key. And there is not a lot of expected face-to-face time expected with members of the Panthers offense due to the coronavirus pandemic.

This has been further complicated by the difficult decision to part ways with some key veterans who have played a significant part in the team’s success in recent years. Quarterback Cam Newton was released after a series of injury problems over the last two years and Pro Bowl guard Trai Turner leaves big shoes to fill on the offensive line interior.

That will put some added pressure on those coming in to fill the void on the Panthers offense. If they fail to produce the goods on a consistent basis, then it is going to be another season of struggles in Carolina.

The Panthers offense needs so score serious points in 2020 when one considers the youthful-looking defense at their disposal. They are going to go through their fair share of growing pains next term, and it will be up to the offensive side of the ball to pick up some of the slack to remain competitive.

Here are four members of the Panthers offense that are under the most pressure to perform in 2020.
