His return aims to strengthen the Panthers’ defense, which has faced challenges with depth this season.
Head coach Frank Reich expressed excitement about Wooten’s comeback, emphasizing that his familiarity with the team’s system is a significant advantage. Defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero also shared his optimism, noting that Wooten’s speed and knowledge of Carolina’s defensive schemes will allow him to make an immediate impact, especially on special teams.
Wooten’s return has generated significant buzz on social media, with fans excited to see the young linebacker back in Carolina blue. The team hopes his presence will add much-needed versatility and energy as they prepare for the coming weeks.
