Panthers' Robby Anderson hilariously mistakes team mascot for a bear

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Carolina Panthers had 10 to 12 defensive calls that didn’t get to the huddle properly on Sunday because of an issue with headsets. Special-teams gunner Trenton Cannon got tangled in a television wire on the sideline that whipped around and hit several teammates and coach Matt Rhule’s son.

But perhaps the biggest item in the blooper reel from the Week 1 34-30 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders might have come from wide receiver Robby Anderson.

He mistook the team mascot, Sir Purr, for a bear.
