Sam Mills has been named as a finalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
The legacy of Sam Mills will live on through the ages as far as the Carolina Panthers are concerned. A legendary linebacker turned coach’s determination and spirit founded the ‘Keep Pounding’ mantra across the organization, and even though he is no longer with us, there is no disputing his importance.
This is something that might soon come with a Pro Football Hall of Fame berth.
Mills was named as one of 15 finalists for NFL immortality on Tuesday evening, which has been a long time coming and would represent some deserved recognition for a man who gave his life to the game.
