Words can’t describe who Luke Kuechly is as a person, friend, and teammate. We have shared countless memories together both on the field and away from it. I feel honored to be his friend and I’ll always appreciate the impact he has had on my life. Love you buddy pic.twitter.com/0DHYkOwDp1

Future HOFer! Proud to call you one of the bros! One heck of a career! Love you bro! LUUUUKE! https://t.co/NcB3MQExMg
After playing with @PatrickWillis52 I didn’t think it was possible for me to touch the field with another LB of his caliber. Then I went to Carolina. Enjoy retirement @LukeKuechly!
In the short time I have been here in Carolina it’s been a pleasure to learn from you and play with you. Will be missed💫 #greatteammatehttps://t.co/L9Dbyh4yjU

I had the privilege of playing next to HOF #MikeSingletary & coaching HOF @BUrlacher54 & @LukeKuechly is worthy of that honor someday. But more important I will remember Luke’s sense of humor, his leadership & 4 being a great teammate. pic.twitter.com/MM96l6vZSS
Much respect to one of the great LBs to play football. You’ve given so much to this game and were a special player to watch. The game is losing a great one. Nothing but respect ✊🏾 https://t.co/Ja76illgi5
Luke doesn’t even have social media he is that different. I have to see him soon in person and pay my respect always fun to play against. Meetings were always a little longer, and gameplans a little more complex. He kept you honest.
Luke, thank you for showing me the way and being the blueprint of how a LB supposed to play this game! I modeled my game and learned from you from the start man! I wish you nothing but success with your future endeavors! You had one hell of a ride! Meet you at the PFHOF! #maniac
Had to be on ya A+ game wit this MONSTAR lurking in the middle of the defense! Great dude, much respect for who you are and what you represent!! Congrats on a great career bro, HOF! https://t.co/Ns3BjIiN8v
One time for Luke Kuechly!!! Dominant linebacker, who played the game the right way. Make all of us who came before him proud, with the way he played the position! Enjoy retirement! ✊🏾
Luke was a fierce, intense competitor who loved his teammates and the game of football. A consummate pro who always believed in team first. He revolutionized the modern day standard for MLB's. It was honor to coach him. He is the best of men on and off the field. 🐐@LukeKuechly
Wow man heartbreaking !!! Ppl don’t understand how much pain this game bring on the mind and body. Take a strong will to walk away. True brotherhood man.... love ya bro that’s from us all 🐐🐐🐐 https://t.co/MVtExyX4xE
Reached out to Thomas Davis to talk about Luke. He told me, “He was the best teammate that I’ve ever had on any level. Easily the nicest guy off the field you’ll ever meet and the most fiercest competitor you’ll ever meet! The game is truly going to miss Luke!” #KeepPounding
Luke Kuechly’s transparency in this statement was unheralded, this wasn’t a prewritten speech.
He waited til the organization & LB room were in good hands FIRST, before even considering his own health. Fans, I hope you appreciate what you have in some athletes, & in Luke. https://t.co/7OsTcxQqux
