Incredible highs and lows for Panthers Nation as many were excited about the announcement of LSU’s Joe Brady leaving Baton Rouge to come to Carolina, just to have one of the franchise’s most beloved players shockingly announce his retirement just hours later. While fans expressed sadness in the news, they also said they were happy that the 7-time Pro Bowler was walking away healthy.

Patrick Willis-esque. Luke was the most dominant linebacker in the nfl for a good amount of time. It’s gonna be weird not seeing him out there. https://t.co/BjgeyHr3FX

It’s hurts, deep, but Luke Kuechly did the right thing. He’s walking away healthy and able to make the decision. We will miss the hell out of him in Carolina and there won’t ever be another 59.

I just hope to see him on the sidelines, somewhere, for us.#KeepPounding

My husband’s first response when I told him about Luke:
NO!

His second response: “I'm actually happy for him, he's a smart guy and still has his health”

It’s bigger than football
