CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Carolina Panthers hit the field today for practice on Thanksgiving morning.

However, it wasn't all about business.

Players opened up to reporter Dashawn Brown about their favorite Thanksgiving traditions.

The Panthers play host Sunday to the Seattle Seahawks, fighting for playoff positioning and to keep their 10-game home winning streak alive.

With so much on their plate, players’ faces lit up when talking about their favorite Thanksgiving dishes.

“Mac and cheese, collard greens, chicken and ham. That's me all day,” Panthers linebacker Thomas Davis said.

There wasn't a shortage of plates in the Panthers locker room for the Thanksgiving holiday, with the players chowing down on their own feast before enjoying the rest of the day with family members or teammates.

“Probably yams,” cornerback James Bradberry. “I hope he has yams at his house.”

“Biscuit, hot sauce and turkey. That's my go-to,” linebacker Luke Kuechly said.

“If I had it my way, being from Louisiana, gumbo,” safety Eric Reid said.

“Lots of food,” head coach Ron Rivera said.

With just three more days until their next game, the 6-4 Panthers are spending part of the holiday together.

“I just think the guys really do look forward to these types of opportunities to get away from it all,” Rivera said.
