CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- Carolina Panthers assistant Sam Mills was diagnosed with cancer of the small intestine Friday, hours before he coached the Panthers' linebackers in their preseason finale.
Just two weeks ago, Carolina linebacker Mark Fields was diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease.
``Anytime someone in your family gets ill, it's a blow,'' general manager Marty Hurney said. ``When it's Sam Mills, someone who means so much to this organization and this community, it's a huge blow.''
