CHARLOTTE (WTVD) -- A special 6-year-old led the "Keep Pounding" drum ceremony Sunday before the Carolina Panthers game against the New Orleans Saints.
Braylon Beam is a kindergartener undergoing treatment for a tumor on his optic nerve.
Before the game started, Braylon pounded the drum, firing up the crowd and the team.
