Panthers overrun by Texans pass rush after Jaguars joint practices
The Carolina Panthers were overwhelmed by the Houston Texans' pass rush during a joint practice on 26 August, and coach Dave Canales said the team must be held accountable and improve. Sports Illustrated reported that on 17 August the Panthers took part in a joint practice with the Jacksonville Jaguars, where Jacksonville shifted to a power-run offense after losing running back Travis Etienne Jr., displayed strong rushing and red-zone efficiency, and saw several players earn praise while roster roles remained under review.
