Let's make this birthday one to remember.

48 years old (Born on November 11, 1976)

Happy Birthday, Brad Hoover! To the man who bulldozed his way from undrafted rookie to Carolina Panthers legend—your journey proves that determination and grit can outshine any draft pick. Fans still reminisce about your powerhouse blocking and those clutch touchdowns you punched in when it mattered most.

Even though defenders probably still have nightmares of being flattened by number 45, we celebrate all you've accomplished both on and off the field. May your birthday be filled with laughter, joy—and hopefully fewer bruises than a typical Sunday afternoon back in Charlotte!

Cheers to another year as unstoppable as ever!
