Posted Feb 15, 2019
For Julius Peppers, Thursday night at the Harvey B. Gantt Center was the culmination of a year’s worth of community service. Peppers, who was Carolina's 2018 NFL Man of the Year nominee, hosted a formal sneaker ball in support of three charities that he handpicked. This was a charity event, but it was also a chance to celebrate the close of a legendary career.
