No contract has been signed, but the Carolina Panthers and South Carolina lawmakers are working on a deal to move the team’s business operations and training facilities out of Charlotte and across the border into South Carolina.
S.C. Gov. Henry McMaster made the announcement Wednesday, standing in front of House and Senate leadership, most of whom attended a private meeting at the Governor’s Mansion that morning with Panthers owner David Tepper to discuss details of the deal.
Tepper did not attend the press conference, nor did other Panthers employees or members of his legal team.
