Frank Reich has been hired as the new head coach of the Carolina Panthers. Reich was fired during the season by the Indianapolis Colts in November after a 3-5-1 start. He went 40-33-1 there and led the Colts to two Wild Card appearances. Reich was the first quarterback to start a game for the expansion Panthers in 1995. Carolina had interviewed nine candidates, including interim head coach Steve Wilks, who was promoted after the team fired Matt Ruhle during the season.
