Tepper praises specific players for community involvement

[Mr. Scot]

In a nutshell, Tepper sees opportunities to make money as opportunities to give more money away to charitable causes he deeply believes in. He's done it in his hometown. He's done it in the New York/New Jersey area that he called home for years. He's done it in Florida since he recently relocated his hedge fund there.

Now, he'll do it in Charlotte and surrounding areas. And he'll encourage Panthers players to do it – to continue to do it.

"I've got to tell ya – one of the great excitements for me is the possibility of community activity and charity activities with this platform," Tepper said after his press conference. "We have a great group of players who already have their own foundations, and from what I've seen so far, they are fairly community minded down here. (Greg) Olsen, Cam (Newton), (Thomas) Davis, (Torrey) Smith – the list goes on and on. This platform is a great way to reach out into the community and get people involved."
