CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Hunter Renfrow's phone was blowing up late last week while the soon-to-be-again Carolina Panthers wide receiver was picking up a trailer at a recycling business he helps run with his uncle in Woodruff, South Carolina.
Only he didn't know it.
Blame "Bluey.''
Yes, the animated children's television series played a role in Renfrow's return to the Panthers, less than a week after he was released.
The 2021 Pro Bowler made the mistake of leaving his phone in his vehicle with his two young daughters during the trailer stop.
