NFL Expands to 17-Game Schedule, Adds Panthers vs Texans for 2021
The NFL approved a 17-game schedule for the 2021 season, extending the season by one extra week. With the additional game, the Panthers will travel to Houston for a matchup with the Texans.
A couple of months ago, there were rumors floating around that the Panthers were one of the three teams that were interested in trading for Texans QB Deshaun Watson but off-the-field issues have stalled those talks. Had the Panthers been able to acquire Watson, that would have set up for an incredible storyline with his return to Houston - the team he has been demanding a trade from.
Dates for this year's schedule have not been made official, but the opponents for the Panthers have been released.
