Christian McCaffrey, Fozzy Whittaker, Jonathan Stewart serenade grieving Panthers fan | Charlotte Observer

Carolina Panthers running backs Christian McCaffrey, Fozzy Whittaker and Jonathan Stewart recently surprised a grieving widow at Bank of America Stadium by serenading her with the classic Bill Withers survival song “Lean on Me.”

The moment was captured in a video posted on Facebook, which shows Lynn Leonhardt of California stepping into a room where McCaffrey and Stewart are waiting at keyboards.

We heard one of our fans could use her spirits lifted...

When Panthers rookie McCaffrey hits the first few chords of “Lean on Me,” Fozzy Whittaker walks in and begins singing, tweeking a few lines as he goes.
