Panthers announce their starting quarterback vs. Saints

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young returned to the starting lineup in their Week 8 matchup against the Denver Broncos. There were questions of whether that change would be permanent. The change happened on the heels of Andy Dalton spraining his thumb in a car accident.

It’s not permanent, but Young will be the Panthers’ starter again against the New Orleans Saints. Dave Canales stressed the decision at quarterback is still being made on a weekly basis.

“Bryce will be starting this week,” Canales asserted with emphasis on the word this. He continues by saying, “we’ll collect all of the information over the week with Andy, with Bryce, how he plays this week, and we’ll make another decision next week.”

Beyond Week 9 is irrelevant to the Saints. This is the second meet-up between these two teams in 2024, and both times Bryce Young has been the starter. Carolina’s offense continues to be limited, and New Orleans’ defense should handle them well.
