Quick Glance: Trump Event in Wilmington Canceled Due to Severe Weather

The planned campaign rally for former President Donald Trump in Wilmington had to be canceled due to the threat of inclement weather.

Shortly before 7 p.m., Trump was supposed to take the stage, but he informed the crowd that the event needed to be canceled due to an impending storm.

The storm brought strong winds and hail, leading to the cancellation of the rally, which was meant to be Trump's first major campaign event since the start of his criminal trial in New York City.

As Trump shifted his views on abortion, the Democratic National Committee seized his visit to criticize him for his abortion policies.

Quick Glance: Panthers Secure Derrick Brown as One of NFL's Highest-Paid Defensive Tackles with Four-Year, $96 Million Extension

The Carolina Panthers have agreed to extend star defensive tackle Derrick Brown for four years and $96 million, with $63.165 million guaranteed. This makes him one of the highest-paid defensive tackles in the NFL.

Originally planning to play the final year of his rookie contract, Brown is now tied to the Panthers until the 2028 season. Drafted by the Panthers at seventh overall in the 2020 NFL Draft from Auburn, he ended the 2023 season with 103 tackles, a league record for a defensive lineman.

With his elite skill, new contract, and the Panthers trading away Brian Burns earlier this year, Brown is now the face of the franchise's defense and will lead them into the next phase of his tenure.

The Panthers, who finished last season with a 2-15 record, have made savvy moves this offseason, including securing Brown as a key player in the defense, to put themselves in a more respectable position.
