Carolina Panthers’ owner David Tepper spoke with media Tuesday about the firing of Frank Reich and the direction of the franchise. Although he spoke for just 13 minutes, the press conference got quite the reaction on social media.
I'm very unhappy w/ the Panthers for getting frozen out of asking a question at the David Tepper press conference.

Sat in front row; raised hand high; wasn't called on; protested to no avail.
Felt like it was purposeful.

There were many more questions that needed to be asked in a presser where few questions were answered. Had my hand up for a second. https://t.co/Y53yDlowcb

The Charlotte media and fans deserved a longer press conference. It would have been less than 10 minutes if Tepper had not allowed the last question regarding Bryce Young/CJ Stroud and personnel decisions.

The Panthers are the most toxic relationship I’ve ever been in

Neither of us are any good for one another but we can’t seem to leave each other alone man lmao
Mentioning a visiting player coming into the hometown stadium as a ‘high point’ of being a fan in Charlotte.

What an uninspiring press conference by David Tepper.
— Drew Rigley (@DrewRigley) November 28, 2023
David Tepper’s press conference ended after 13 minutes. Did not allow multiple reporters to ask questions. He maybe answered 4-5 questions with half the time talking about events in BOA Stadium and business.
Tepper said “I brought soccer and Beyoncé to BOA and this is the thanks I get?” 🤣🤣🤣

I learned today that David Tepper’s greatest contribution is that one time Messi played in Bank of America Stadium

13 minutes doesn’t sound like extreme patience to me https://t.co/Noj9BgGJHH

That press conference definitely didn't make me feel any better about the future of the Panthers.

All the people who was going to ask David Tepper the REAL QUESTIONS he avoided… no disrespect to the other reports though. But their questions were kinda bland tbh
— ⚡️T-Time ⚡️ (@Ayo_TTime9) November 28, 2023
Tepper making a lot of people question their fandom and it’s very understandable

If I was an NFL owner, I’d give real answers to the press. What do I know, I’m just an actual person.

“I brought music to Charlotte” all over again

Tepper said yall get to see my face and that's it

Tepper really purchased an NFL to make some bread. He don’t care nothing about football! He needed a way to have a facility that he can eventually upgrade or rebuild that he can host 10+ concerts and events a year in. He should’ve just built a convention center
