CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers secondary coach Jonathan Cooley was dripping with sweat when he ran into head coach Dave Canales in the locker room shortly before the first meeting at 7 a.m.

"You just come from the sauna?'' Canales asked.

Cooley laughed and told his new boss he goes to a hot yoga class that incorporates weights every morning around 5:45 a.m. before coming to Bank of America Stadium.

Canales saw this an opportunity not only to get back into yoga, but as a key part of turning around the Panthers by building relationships.
