The Panthers aren’t ready to turn the page on the 2025 season quite yet, but the full slate of opponents for next season has been confirmed anyway.

Panthers vs. Buccaneers will broadcast nationally on ABC/ESPN in Week 18 of the 2025 season. Chris Fowler (play-by-play commentator), Dan Orlovsky (color analyst), Louis Riddick (color analyst), Katie George (sideline reporter) and Peter Schrager (sideline reporter) are on the call.

The Los Angeles Rams will face the Carolina Panthers in an NFC Wild Card playoff game. The game is scheduled for Saturday, Jan. 10, 2026, at 4:30 p.m. ET. Viewers can watch the game live on FOX or stream it on NFL+.

The conclusion of the regular season means that the Panthers now know the opponents they’ll play next year, and whether they’ll play those opponents at home or on the road. The franchise also has a good idea of where it will pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, though that won’t be officially set in stone until after Carolina’s season concludes.

As announced on Sunday night, the Panthers will host the Los Angeles Rams for their wild-card weekend matchup at 4:30 p.m. ET on Saturday, Jan. 10. The game will be broadcast by FOX.
