Panthers owner Tepper appears to throw drink into Jacksonville stands
Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper seemed to lose his cool during his team's 26-0 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday.
Tepper appeared to throw the contents of a cup into the crowd below his suite at EverBank Stadium before storming off. A fan seems to react immediately by climbing up toward the suite:

"We are aware of the video and have no further comment at this time," NFL spokesperson Brian McCarthy said, according to The Athletic's Joe Person.
Sunday's loss marked another low point in the Panthers' season, with quarterback Bryce Young being sacked six times in the shutout.
The Chicago Bears secured the first overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft following Carolina's defeat. The Panthers sent the Bears their first-round selection in next year's draft along with wide receiver D.J. Moore to move up to first overall last season and select Young.
