Ben Boulware is doing his best to make a good impression on the Carolina Panthers.
Boulware signed with the Panthers over the weekend after going undrafted. The former Clemson linebacker apparently showed up so early to report on Thursday that he would have made Tom Coughlin proud.
Ben Boulware showed up to stadium 90 minutes early today. So he took a nap in his car until it was time to check in.

Boulware was extremely productive and accomplished during his college career. He won the Jack Lambert Award in December for best linebacker in college football and was named Defensive MVP of the National Championship Game.
Usually a player of his credentials wouldn’t feel like he had so much to prove going into the NFL, but Boulware does. You can tell how he feels just based on a look at some of his tweets:
Like I said 3 days ago…I'm in the business of proving people wrong. All I need is an opportunity.
Now just sit back & watch.

Boulware recorded a team-leading 116 tackles last season with four sacks and an interception. He certainly didn’t lack for productivity in college.
