Carolina Panthers cornerback Kevon Seymour will not soon forget the sound the bones made when they broke.
He was in the end zone when his teammate, cornerback Ross Cockrell, accidentally collided with receiver Torrey Smith. Cockrell fractured both bones in his lower left leg. .
Seymour won’t forget the look on Cockrell’s face, or his screams of pain. Nobody in attendance at Monday’s practice will.
But instead of dwelling on the horror of the injury itself, the Panthers defensive backs all got together this week to agree on a theme for the year: They will dedicate the 2018 season to Cockrell.
