We’re counting down the days until the Panthers open up the 2025 season!
In this series, we’ll be counting down until opening kickoff by running through the Panthers roster by jersey number. Today’s piece looks at the current and historical players to have ever donned No. 60 for the Carolina Panthers.
Current Player: n/a
The number 60 has not been a commonly worn number throughout the Panthers short history. I’m not sure why more guys don’t don the 60, but let’s look at the number’s history in Charlotte.
Notable Previous Players to Wear Number 60: Andrew Raym, Pat Elflein, Daryl Williams, Jeff Mitchell
The most recent Panther to wear 60 was Andrew Raym last year. Pat Elflein was one of the “splash free agents” that Matt Rhule and Scott Fitterer brought in as soon as free agency opened in 2021. He battled some injuries but was the starting center for the two years he was here when healthy. Daryl Williams was one of the more successful players to wear the number 60 in Carolina. He became a full fledged starter in 2016, his second year in the league, and even earned a couple second team All-Pro nods at right tackle in 2017. After an injury took most of 2018, the Panthers tried moving Williams to the left side, both at tackle and guard. It did not work out, and he became another member of the Carolina North Buffalo Bills. Jeff Mitchell is likely the player most older fans think of when they think about the number 60. After three successful years with the Baltimore Ravens, Mitchell came to Carolina in 2001, helping anchor the offensive line that helped propel the team to a Super Bowl appearance in 2003.
