Ron Rivera gets a three-year extension with the Carolina Panthers. Photo credit NFL |
The Panthers took care of their sideline leader today. Ron Rivera received a three-year extension. Rivera still has a year left on his current four-year deal, so essentially its another four-year deal. We just don't know the financial numbers yet, but I'm guessing it will be a solid raise for him.
Rivera is currently making a nudge under $3 million a year.
The Panthers are coming off of a surprising 2013 year where they went 12-4 and had a first round bye. 2008 was the last Panthers home playoff game.
With a great defense in tack and Cam Newton coming into his own, the once on shaky ground Rivera has stabilized a situation that seemed to be heading into disaster.
I know all of the NFL heads are checking for the Super Bowl this week, but this is a big move that may fly under the radar.
