Peters may be one of many to interview, though. Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that Carolina has already requested to interview New England Patriots director of player personnel Nick Caserio, Buffalo Bills assistant general manager Joe Schoen, and Cleveland Browns vice president of football operations Kwesi Adofo-Mensah.
Per the report, the Panthers are also expected to request interviews with New Orleans Saints assistant general manager Jeff Ireland and Indianapolis Colts assistant general manager Ed Dodds.
Peters has spent the past four seasons with the 49ers, working closely with general manager John Lynch to build a roster that reached the Super Bowl last season. Peters was among the first hires by Lynch in 2017. He spent his previous eight seasons (2009-16) with the Denver Broncos.
