Bryce Young Takes the Helm for Panthers Following Dalton's Injury
Panthers' Quarterback Situation
In a surprising turn of events, Bryce Young will start for the Carolina Panthers this Sunday against the Denver Broncos after Andy Dalton suffered a thumb injury in a car crash.
Incident Details
Dalton's car accident occurred on Tuesday, resulting in a sprained right thumb, prompting head coach Dave Canales to announce Young's promotion.
- Dalton did not require emergency transport after the crash.
- His injury is significant enough to prevent him from starting.
Young's New Opportunity
Coach Canales has shown excitement for Young's chance to lead the team once again, especially after a rocky start to the season.
- Young began the season as the starter but was benched after two disappointing games.
- Dalton took over and initially found success but has since struggled.
Looking Ahead
The Panthers look to regain momentum with Young at the helm. Canales indicated that they would evaluate Dalton's condition through the week to determine backup status.
