Panthers' Sam Darnold shows artistic side (sorta) with new team profile pic

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Sam Darnold might or might not become a great quarterback for the Carolina Panthers, but he made it clear during an impromptu drawing session on Thursday that he shouldn’t quit his day job to become an artist.

At least not a serious one.

Darnold’s drawing of the team logo has become the team’s “new profile picture” on its Twitter and Instagram accounts. It’s not nearly as ferocious-looking as the actual logo and the neck is funny-long, but it’s at least a close resemblance.

The drawing became such an overnight hit that the Panthers, who became known for specialty T-shirts when Ron Rivera was the head coach, suggested Darnold’s drawing might look good on a T-shirt.
