The Carolina Panthers have parted ways with head coach Ron Rivera, owner David Tepper announced Tuesday.
This news comes after the team's worst loss of the season to the 2-win Washington Redskins at home. Rivera had a pedestrian overall regular season record with the franchise in 9 seasons, going 76-63-1. Team owner David Tepper stated he will not settle for mediocrity, and this move certainly states that loud and clear.
