PROSPECT OF THE DAY: Carolina Panthers HOST Kaelon Black, Will He COMPETE for a Role Over AJ Dillon?

The Carolina Panthers expand their running back room, targeting Indiana’s Kaelon Black after a standout national championship season. Are Dave Canales and Dan Morgan doubling down on the ground game, or is Black a depth move? Host Julian Council highlights the team’s top-30 visit with Black and explores his physical downhill style, plus the Panthers' emphasis on running back value.

Key topics include Chuba Hubbard’s uncertain lead role, Jonathan Brooks’s injury comeback, and Trevor Etienne's untapped potential. The episode analyzes Black’s strengths and weaknesses, his practice squad outlook, and how AJ Dillon fits into the mix. With roster battles intensifying, Council questions if Carolina could surprise fans with another running back draft pick or undrafted signing. Keep Pounding as the Panthers chase backfield stability ahead of next season.
