Gave up his plane seat to a Vet today...shows what kind of person he is.He works hard for breast cancer awareness...always willing to be friendly and interact with our fanbase....always smiling it seems.Lost his mom recently and handled it like a man on his social media posts, very thankful and grateful to all.I know he will be gone next year and I hope he has a productive season.Regardless of the asinine contract Hurney gave him and how some dislike him for that reason...he is still a good guy, great with the fans and gives 100% on the field.Props to you Deangelo.

That was nice of him, and I don't mean to downplay that act but I kind of wondered why he felt the need to post about it.

All good deeds shouldn't have to be a secret. Heck, it made me feel a little better about the potential goodness of people knowing he made such a respectful gesture. Hopefully, his post will inspire others to do the same.

I did not read any post so take my comments with a grain of salt. He does not seem to be an attention hound so I would think it might be just to let people know "hey I did a good deed, so can you" type thing. I believe he is a genuine guy. People like him and TD are really are gems for this team.

Unfortunately it appears the guy isn't really a Marine... wearing his cover indoors, medals displayed incorrectly, etc... read the comments in the FB post.

DeAngelo had no way of knowing, still a good deed!

He had to let people know. Otherwise this service member just thinks some black guy with giant thighs gave me his seat. Or maybe he saw a young man or woman willing to put down their life so he can play a game for millions of dollars.

Are there any military men on this forum that can confirm this?

It's tough to tell from the photo. I can see a Silver Star and he's an E-9. There aren't that many E-9's around and he's black so that really narrows down the list. I don't see why anyone would fake that of all ranks.

    • I was checking out Chris Brazzell II measureables, and I thought they looked suspiciously familiar. Turns out it was true, almost identical measureables to former Panthers DJ Chark circa 2023. I even checked Terrace Marshall Jr results, and honestly isn't that far behind them.   I know this isn't unique for just our team, but we seem to specifically have an obsession with trying to make this tall lanky speedsters work for us. I admittedly wasn't that high on Brazzell, and when I watched the tape I didn't really see that 4.3 speed, and a strong wind seems to tackle him.   I really liked most of the draft, including getting Hecht in the 5th when I graded him as a #1 Center in this draft. I'm rooting for the guy to work out, especially since our HC and OC made their bones as Wide Receiver coaches. But Brazzell is the only one I'm kinda meh on. I was hoping we'd trade up to get Big Citrus, or if we went WR I liked Ted Hurst much better. We'll see though. 3rd rounders seem to be coin-flips for us (see DJ Johnson/Matt Corral). But I'm rooting for the guy and for this experiment to finally pay off.   I haven't seen anyone else post something about this, so just thought it was interesting and passing it along.   #keeppounding   -------------------------------------------------------------- AI Overview   Chris Brazzell II and D.J. Chark both possess nearly identical elite deep-threat profiles, highlighted by their tall, lanky builds and blazing sub-4.40 speed. Chark was slightly faster, while Brazzell offers a marginally heavier frame and longer wingspan. [1, 2, 3, 4] The side-by-side physical and athletic testing results from their respective NFL Scouting Combines outline their comparable profiles: [1] Metric [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] D.J. Chark (2018) Chris Brazzell II (2026) Height 6'3" 6'4" Weight 199 lbs 198 lbs Wingspan 78.5" 80.1" 40-Yard Dash 4.34 seconds 4.37 seconds 10-Yard Split ~1.50s (est.) 1.52 seconds Vertical Jump 40.0" 40.0" (pre-draft) Hand Size 9.25" 9.0" Analytical Comparison Size & Build: Both receivers offer an excellent catch radius with lanky, outside-threat frames. Brazzell holds a slight edge in height and an even more significant advantage in wingspan, giving him a massive target radius. Speed Profile: Chark famously recorded the fastest 40-yard dash time at his combine, while Brazzell was a standout at his event. Both times are elite for their size, translating directly to the "field-stretching" and vertical playmaking abilities that define their games. Draft Status: Chark was selected by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the second round (61st overall) of the 2018 Draft. Brazzell was selected by the Carolina Panthers in the third round (83rd overall) of the 2026 NFL Draft.
    • I still reserve my right to bitch about how incompetent the Panthers are at running a football organization and point to the mountains of evidence in support.
