CHARLOTTE -- Thomas Davis' rewarding offseason will continue with a special appearance in Chicago at the NFL Draft. The Panthers linebacker will announce Carolina's first-round draft choice on April 30.
"I'm excited. This is a huge honor. I'm going to really enjoy the moment," Davis said. "I know the NFL has done some things in the past where they've had guys announce a third or fourth-round pick, but a player getting to announce the first-round pick is pretty special."
Davis' offseason honors include being named Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year, presented by Nationwide, and being awarded the key to the City of Charlotte.
