Former Carolina Panthers interim head coach Steve Wilks has said goodbye. The Charlotte native and local favorite posted a heartfelt message on Friday morning, thanking everyone for their support after he’d been passed up for the team’s full-time gig.
In return, a few of his former players sent the love right back.
Nothing but absolute love for this man! Can’t wait to see what his future holds. https://t.co/CmgB47j9XN

My guy…I’ve been to 2 Super Bowls and guess who was my coach? Where ever you land, come find me Wilks and let’s take the ball away. https://t.co/5Q0QvNfKyf

Steve Wilks deserves another chance to be a head coach again and I feel like he’ll get that opportunity. Disappointed it wasn’t with the home team but everything has its purpose. On the flip side, I’m optimistic and eager to witness the next chapter. #KP
