On April 3rd, the Carolina Panthers balled out in the 2025 season, snagging the NFC South Crown and hosting the Los Angeles Rams in the wildcard playoffs. They fell short in a tight battle, but now it's all about stacking talent around quarterback Bryce Young to state NFC contenders. CBS Sports analyst, Scare Padel, just dropped the Panthers as the top spot for free agent, Titan David and Joku. He figures in Joku would upgrade that position big time over Tommy Trimble, opening the middle for young like nobody's business. Trimble had a solid year with 27 catches, 249 yards, and two scores decent for a number two guy, but not the every down. Threat this offense needs. Fans are buzzing because in Joku could be that reliable safety valve. Meanwhile, on Joku posted 33 grabs for 293 yards and four touchdowns in just 12 games last year, despite playing. Behind the leagues, weakest quarterback room. That grit shows his upside. Picture in Joku teaming with Xavier Leggett, Jalen Coker, and Adam Thielin for Young's best
receiver crew yet, his peak 2023 pro ball run. With 81 catches and 882 yards proves he can elevate any squad, Panthers front office better make that call to keep the momentum rolling. I'm Cory with the story, and you've been listening to NFL News today, AI-powered football coverage.
