The Carolina Panthers are preparing to host the Seattle Seahawks in an NFC divisional round game on Sunday, but until then, members of the offensive line might want to kick back and relax with their new gifts from teammates Jonathan Stewart and Mike Tolbert, who just hooked the big fellas up with 49″ flat screens.

Both Stewart and Tolbert, who are running/full backs, wanted to thank their teammates for plowing defenders out of the way and creating holes to run through all season long, as both players were named to the Pro Bowl.

This isn’t the first time that teammates have given a TV as a present, with Buffalo Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor doing the same thing for his O-line towards the end of the regular season.

Initially believed to be given by Panthers QB Cam Newton, Stewart and Tolbert may have just given their lineman extra incentive to bust the Seahawks in the mouth this weekend as they hope to reach the NFC Championship Game and beyond, so smart move by these guys.
