The 2018 Carolina Panthers season was highlighted by a strong 6-2 start and historic individual performances, despite finishing with a 7-9 record. Running back Christian McCaffrey emerged as a superstar, becoming only the third player in NFL history to record over 1,000 rushing yards and 100 receptions in a single season, while linebacker Luke Kuechly continued his defensive dominance with 20 tackles for loss. The season also featured a memorable 63-yard game-winning field goal by Graham Gano and ended on a positive note with a decisive 33-14 victory over the division-rival New Orleans Saints. A 2017 seventh-round pick and three-time All-GAC selection at East Central, David Moore is a veteran wide receiver who has recorded over 1,600 receiving yards and 17 touchdowns across eight NFL seasons with the Seattle Seahawks, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Carolina Panthers.
