Curtis Samuel earned his Panther card

On the day he learned he was lost for the season, Samuel signed autographs and passed out Thanksgiving turkeys at the Salvation Army Boys & Girls Club in Sedgefield.

Samuel, using crutches with his leg heavily wrapped, said he didn’t want to cancel his appearance.

“I’m in a little bit of pain, but that wasn’t going to stop me because I understand how important this moment is for these kids,” he said. “They look forward to this and I also was looking forward to this. So I wasn’t going to let an injury stop me from giving back.”

Samuel signed promotional fliers for the event, and also autographed several cell phones.

In return, he received a get-well card from a young girl and let several kids sign his Panthers cap.

After getting a turkey and an autograph, one girl started dancing with excitement.

“I wish I could dance with you,” Samuel said, smiling.

 

Well done Curtis.

Ive said this before, but I love how much this franchise gives back to the community.  They are always doing something and most we would never know about.  Good job young man!

Yes.  I was a fan of this team from the beginning because they are local.  But one thing now I really love is the character of this team.  It seems to mean something to be a Panther.....not just about football.  This is  a group of men we can be proud of.  They are making a difference and I was very impressed by Curtis Samuel.  Even as a young player...he gets it.  I hope he is a Panther for life....and a very prolific wide receiver.

I would say I am a “downer” 1% of the time. Huge fan of 10 and love the article. Just feeling a little bit worried about his durability. I think many of us have shared those concerns since the preseason. 

Lets hope it’s not a trend. Hoping for the best with him because he has so much talent and potential. 

Keep pounding youngster.

I was annoyed when he dropped that TD pass, but he made a grown man catch earlier where he got blasted and held on. Cancels each other out. Hate he’s gone for the season, needs the reps.  Hopefully it heals completely and he comes back to training camp ready to learn. I have very high hopes for this guy (after draft night 1 he was on the short list I posted here for wants in round 2 :) )

    • Roger all that. Do you think BY avoided any sacks last game? This oline is not what you're touting them to be. They are much better then 2023! Much much much better than 2023. But come on now, you'd expect this expensive oline (most are run blocking specialist) to at least dominate in the run game every game.  And... I keep telling you our WRs and TEs are not that good yet. I mean last Sunday was a prime example. Our receiving targets never make plays like those. Never. And this is from one of the worst teams in the league. Shough could have easily had 3 INTs if not for his receivers making plays on the ball. Our guys just don't do that. XL almost allowed an INT backing up out of bounds instead of coming to the ball. And everyone would have blamed that on BY. That's why he doesn't throw to that dude. I can't recall a game except maybe the second Falcons game - maybe, where I thought our receivers could possibly be better than the other team's. I think TMac and Coker have a lot of potential. But they're aren't consistent. But they're young and WILL improve. I'm confident of that.  I don't agree that BY was drafted to only stand in the pocket. He has always been best off schedule - for better or worse. 
    • Do you think you will get a direct answer?  Icky giving up 5 pressures (playing hurt in his defense) by himself and Bryce only getting sacked once tells you he played well in the pocket.  He extended plays and converted some tough downs.  
    • I've been very apprehensive about potentially firing yet another head coach. But Canales needs to focus on being a head coach first and foremost and begin handing off some responsibilities like playcalling duties and begin overseeing the entire team or we need to assess all possible ideal HC candidates in the offseason.
