A Delta Airlines airplane carrying players and members of the Carolina Panthers organization slid off the runway moments after touching down at Charlotte Douglas International Airport.

According to WCNC, emergency crews were waiting for the plane after it went off the taxiway and into mud. Part of the landing gear also landed off the runway.
"The right main gear of Delta 8860 exited the taxiway at Charlotte Douglas International Airport following a normal arrival," Delta said in a statement. "No injuries were reported by the 188 customers who are deplaning and being bused to the terminal. We apologize to our customers for the inconvenience."
The Panthers are coming off a season in which they went 2-15, the worst record in the NFL. They will open the 2024 regular season on the road against the New Orleans Saints on Sept. 8.
