Jerry Richardson Accepts Champions Award At Our Charlotte Offices

Panthers Owner Jerry Richardson stopped by the Charlotte offices of SBJ/SBD on Friday to accept his '16 Champions Award. Richardson, who recently underwent shoulder surgery, could not attend last month's CAA World Congress of Sports to be feted along with the rest of the '16 Champions class. In his brief remarks in Charlotte, Richardson thanked SBJ's editorial staff for their work on his profile. He also graciously deflected credit for his accomplishments to those around him, from Johnny Unitas in his playing days to past NFL Commissioners Pete Rozelle and Paul Tagliabue for helping bring an NFL team to the Carolinas (THE DAILY).
