There is some surprising alignment between who Carolina Panthers fans are rooting for in Super Bowl LX tonight and who the nationwide SB Nation Reacts audience thinks will win. Is this a coincidence or is everybody still tired of the Patriots, no matter how you ask the question? The Seattle Seahawks are -4.5 point favorites […]

The story of Jalen Coker’s NFL journey so far is all about about opportunities and what you do with them. After all, Coker went undrafted in his rookie year and joined a Panthers team that seemingly had the receiver room already completely set.
