Carolina Panthers linebacker Luke Kuechly has been so consistent year over year that when he spoke to media after Sunday’s training camp practice, a reporter began by asking him, “So, is anything new with you?”
There isn’t much. Kuechly appears to be fully recovered from his offseason labrum repair surgery, and hasn’t missed a step as he prepares for his seventh NFL season.
But Kuechly actually dropped a stone-cold stunner on the crowd a few moments later, when he said that the current Panthers linebackers room is the best he’s ever been a part of.
That’s new.
