The 68-year-old Williamson announced his retirement Monday. He joined the Panthers in their inaugural season in 1995 and worked under coaches Dom Capers, George Seifert and John Fox. Williamson was credited with developing numerous receivers in Carolina, including Steve Smith and Muhsin Muhammad. He becomes the second assistant to leave since the end of Carolina’s 8-8 season in 2009. Special teams coach Danny Crossman was fired last week.
