CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Panthers president Danny Morrison announced Thursday he has resigned to pursue other career opportunities at the college level.
Morrison has served as Panthers team president since 2009. He was hired after Panthers owner and founder Jerry Richardson abruptly let go of his sons Mark and Jon Richardson when the brothers couldn't get along at work. Richardson hired Morrison despite the fact he had no experience at the NFL level at the time.
Like Richardson, Morrison also attended Wofford College, where the Panthers still have training camp every summer.
Morrison, 63, came to the Panthers from Texas Christian University and before that served as commissioner of the Southern Conference and director of athletics at Wofford College.
