Diego Pavia Visits Panthers

Vanderbilt’s 2025 SEC Offensive Player of the Year, Diego Pavia, measured roughly 5’10” and has 9.5‑inch hands, similar to Panthers’ rookie QB Bryce Young. The visit comes as Carolina eyes the 2026 draft, and a Pavia pick would make the team one of the shortest QB rooms in NFL history. Off‑field controversies aside, the Panthers have shown a willingness to draft light‑framed quarterbacks, suggesting Pavia could be a viable option for the club’s future plans.
