Marchand’s Emotional Return to Panthers Shrouded in Tragedy: The Heartbreaking Story Behind His Comeback
“There really was not a decision for us. We felt for him, we knew he was having a tough week. That’s a tough week. He needed to be there.”
Marchand certainly appreciated the love and support he says he got from his teammates on the Panthers as well as the organization as a whole.
“I am very grateful for the way the Panthers handled the situation,” Marchand said. “I called Paul and [GM Bill Zito] and they just said, ‘Go home, come back when you are ready.’ Not every team, or company, would do that. I am very appreciative to them for allowing me to be with the family and our friends. It just speaks volumes to them as people and to this organization.”
