CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — The Carolina Panthers fired coach Frank Reich with the team off to an NFL-worst 1-10 record in his first year in charge. The move came a day after the Panthers fell 17-10 to the Tennessee Titans for their fourth straight loss. Owner David Tepper hired Reich to fix one of the league's worst offenses over the past few seasons and develop Bryce Young, the No. 1 overall draft pick. Instead, they are assured of a sixth straight losing season since Tepper bought the team in 2018 for $2.275 billion. Special teams coordinator Chris Tabor will take over as interim head coach.
