Keys are the key to Panthers RB Jonathan Stewart’s next postseason contest, ‘MVP’

Carolina Panthers running back Jonathan Stewart no doubt hoped to use his hands to help carry his team farther than the wild-card round of the NFL playoffs.

But his hands will take a more central role in his next postseason competition.

Stewart will play the piano on “MVP: Most Valuable Performer,” a one-hour talent show airing live on CBS on Thursday at 8 p.m. The competition, hosted by actor/rapper LL Cool J, aims to find the NFL player with the most off-the-field talent.

Stewart is one of six finalists – five individuals and a set of twins, all NFL players – that made the cut for the finale from among 32 entries submitted late last year.
