A little over a week after Frank Reich’s sacking, the Panthers’ organization has taken a crippling blow from a recent report by The Athletic.
Sources with Carolina depicted a “Hunger Games” culture within the franchise, one that featured none of the hit series’ merciless violence but did include several instances of back-stabbing, according to Joseph Person and Dianna Russini.
“Team sources described a “Hunger Games” culture at Bank of America Stadium. Coaches said they believed other staff members were text messaging Tepper behind Reich’s back about issues they saw with the team,” said The Athletic report. “In one instance, general manager Scott Fitterer and an offensive coach went to Tepper with a coaching suggestion for the quarterback.”
