Last week was a busy week for the Carolina Panthers, naming Dan Morgan as GM and Dave Canales as head coach. More change is on the way as the Panthers are also pursuing Kansas City Chiefs vice president of football operations Brandt Tilis "for a prominent front office role," according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
Schefter reports that Carolina is looking to have a similar front office structure as the San Francisco 49ers which isn't all that surprising, considering the consulting firm, Sportsology, also assisted San Francisco in creating their current set up.
"The Panthers have given Morgan the official title of president of football operations/general manager -- the same title that the 49ers have given John Lynch.
"Tilis is likely to land a similar role to 49ers chief contract negotiator Paraag Marathe, who has the title of executive vice president of football operations, according to sources. Then the Panthers would have Morgan and Tilis work in much the same way that Lynch and Marathe do."
Tilis interviewed for the Panthers' GM position three years ago and again this year following the firing of Scott Fitterer. He is well thought of around the league and has been the main orchestrator in contract negotiations for the Chiefs since 2017.
Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated reported Sunday morning that Tilis' office was already cleaned out, indicating he's beginning his transition to Carolina.
