    Mike McCormack, a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame and an integral part of bringing the Carolina Panthers to Charlotte, died Friday. He was 83.

    McCormack was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1984 after a 12-year career that included six selections to the Pro Bowl as an offensive tackle for the Cleveland Browns. Legendary coach Paul Brown, who gave McCormack's induction speech, called him "the finest offensive lineman I have ever coached."

    McCormack was listed as one of the three finest tackles in league history in 1994 when USA Today posted its all-time 75th anniversary team.
