Matthew Kenneth Rhule is an American football coach and former player
Born January 31, 1975 · New York, New York
The Panthers on Monday parted ways with head coach Matt Rhule, after the team fell to 1-4 with a home loss to San Francisco.
The 47-year-old Rhule had generally turned his college teams at Temple and Baylor around in his third season, but that bounce hadn't happened here so far.
He will be replaced on an interim basis by defensive pass game coordinator/secondary coach Steve Wilks.
The 53-year-old Wilks spent one year as head coach of the Arizona Cardinals, and six years on the Panthers staff from 2012-17.
Rhule's firing came after Tepper in late April said: "I believe in Matt. He has my full support.''
