Panthers in violation of NFL rules regarding their search for a permanent head coach, multiple sources tell CBS Sports.

Following a request for comment, a team spokesman said in a statement: "She was trained prior to participating in interviews." No further elaboration was given.

Multiple sources have refuted the Panthers' statement. It's unclear if the league plans to issue any punishment to the team.

The NFL added this requirement at October's fall league meeting, 

 

On Dec. 2, the league sent a memo to all teams and included the chief executives, club presidents, head coaches and general managers. In Step 1B of the memo -- near the top of the page -- the league instructs teams that inclusive hiring training is required.

"Club owner(s) and key decision-makers (those involved in the selection of the candidate) are required to participate in inclusive hiring training prior to starting the search," the memo reads. "Please review the appendix for the list of hiring trainers approved by the League office. You have the option of selecting any of the inclusive hiring trainers on the list or selecting your own with League office approval."

The league then offers eight different consulting groups/consultants to conduct the mandatory training with links to how to access this information. One source said teams got multiple emails and correspondences about the importance of all members of the search committee personally taking the training.
