For at least one more year, the Carolina Panthers will hold their training camp at Wofford College in Spartanburg, SC, according to a report by Eric Boynton at the Herald-Journal.
The team will eventually move camp to their new facility in Rock Hill, SC, but it won’t be ready for two more years.
Joe Person at the Athletic reported yesterday that the organization is working on a new contract with Wofford to keep camp there until the Rock Hill construction is complete.
“The Panthers’ contract with Wofford expired last year, and the two sides are working on a new agreement that would keep the team in Spartanburg until their Rock Hill facility is finished, according to sources.”
There is no word yet about 2021.
This is one area of the franchise that former owner Jerry Richardson’s influence is still being felt. He attended college at Wofford (class of 1959) and played wide receiver on their team before jumping to the NFL. Camp has been held at Wofford since the Panthers’ inception in 1995.
