The Carolina Panthers enter the 2025 season determined to leave behind their dismal 5-12 campaign.
The franchise made sweeping changes this offseason, targeting key positions to support second-year quarterback Bryce Young.
The wide receiver room has drawn particular attention during training camp.
Among the notable additions is veteran Hunter Renfrow, who signed a one-year deal in April and has quickly made his presence felt in practice sessions.
Following Monday’s workout, Renfrow offered a bold assessment of the Panthers’ WR room that caught the attention of many.
“Hunter Renfrow says the Panthers WR room is the deepest he’s been a part of in his NFL career,” Panthers Beat Writer Sheena Quick shared.

The statement carries weight considering Renfrow’s background.
He spent time with the Las Vegas Raiders alongside elite talent like Davante Adams.
His college years at Clemson featured future NFL stars Tee Higgins and Mike Williams.
Carolina’s current receiving corps supports Renfrow’s enthusiasm.
First-round picks Tetairoa McMillan and Xavier Legette headline the group.
McMillan, selected eighth overall, projects as Young’s top target.
Legette brings size and athleticism that complements the unit’s skill set.
Veteran Adam Thielen provides leadership and reliability.
Jalen Coker emerged as a bright spot during last season’s struggles.
David Moore and Jimmy Horn Jr. round out a group with surprising depth.
Renfrow’s slot expertise adds another layer to the offense.
His route-running precision and field awareness give offensive coordinator Dave Canales multiple options in the passing game.
Young enters his third season with significantly better weapons than he had as a rookie.
Canales has designed a system focused on quarterback development and success.
This receiving corps could be the catalyst Carolina needs to turn around its fortunes.
