Good write up about his leadership;
CHARLOTTE — Friday afternoon, as the two quarterbacks taking part in the Carolina Panthers rookie minicamp walked out of the QB meeting room, it was with a directive.
Use that downtime to immerse yourself back in the playbook. Don't let a bad operation in practice keep them from taking advantage of this limited window during which they're in front of NFL coaches and scouts. So, Haynes King took the message to heart. He started sending texts to anyone he had a number for and instructed them to go around the hotel and find anyone else who could run through some offensive plays.
"It was kind of like a knock on the door, trying to find (people)," laughed King, sharing the story Saturday, after rookie minicamp concluded.
Within a few minutes, they had enough guys to simulate plays. A full offensive line, a tight end, three receivers, and a quarterback. They found an off-site parking lot between the stadium and the hotel where the participants are staying. There was enough room to walk through the plays so that it would work.
