Panthers LB coach Warren Belin, WR coach Fred Graves and RB coach John Settle will not return in 2013, the team announced Tuesday.

"These were tough decisions because each of these coaches has played an instrumental role on our staff over the last two seasons," said head coach Ron Rivera. "However, I have decided to go in a different direction at these positions."

This was Belin’s first pro stop, while Graves joined the Panthers following four seasons with the Titans. Settle had been the running-backs coach the past two seasons.
