Carolina Panthers' defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero is on a mission to overhaul last season's bottom-ranked defense by using Tershawn 'Turk' Wharton's inspiring success story. Wharton, who went undrafted in 2020 from a lesser-known Division II school, has overcome challenges to become a vital player, winning two Super Bowls with the Chiefs. Despite moving to the Panthers, his journey emphasizes the importance of hard work and perseverance in achieving success. Evero aims to instill this message within the team to create a more competitive defense.
“Just letting them know that anything is possible, but it takes time and it takes hard work,'' Wharton told ESPN.
Everybody was, 'Who is that?' '' Wharton recalled with a chuckle. 'A few walked up to me and said, 'What school was that?' ''
