Rock Hill in play for Panthers headquarters, practice facility

The Carolina Panthers have talked with Rock Hill about moving the NFL team’s headquarters and training facilities to the city, according to U.S. Rep. Ralph Norman and Rock Hill Mayor John Gettys.

Team executives, who have been considering locations in both Carolinas, met Feb. 5 with Norman and Gettys at the Panthers’ facilities, Norman, a Rock Hill Republican, told McClatchy on Monday.

“(We) made the pitch for locating their practice (facility) to York County and will have further meetings as our sites to consider become finalized,” Norman said.

Gettys said Tuesday that, to his knowledge, talks haven’t come down to specific locations.
