Lucas: A More Consistent Person

Posted Aug 25, 2006

Cornerback Quinton Person happens to be playing the best football of his Carolina career. He'd seen plenty of game action already, including four starts last season after Watkins was injured. Some of his most valuable contributions had come on special teams, where he's been a consistently solid performer--returning punts as a freshman and scooping up a blocked punt and returning it for a touchdown in last year's win over NC State.
