The Carolina Panthers are exploring options to strengthen their run defense ahead of the NFL trade deadline, with Miami Dolphins defensive lineman Zach Sieler emerging as a potential target, according to a report from Gameday Carolina on Tuesday.
Sieler, 29, has established himself as a stout interior defender for the Dolphins. His addition could address a notable weakness in Carolina's front seven, which has struggled to contain opposing ground games this season.
The NFL trade deadline falls on November 3, 2026, giving the Panthers limited time to finalize any deal. Neither the Panthers nor the Dolphins have publicly commented on the speculation.
