Bryce Young Benched in Favor of Andy Dalton

The Carolina Panthers have benched second-year quarterback Bryce Young in favor of veteran Andy Dalton after a poor start to the season, where Young threw for 245 yards and three interceptions. Cam Newton commented on Young's situation, noting the lack of support and continuity within the organization, which has hindered Young's performance. Despite the benching, teammates have praised Young for his leadership and attitude, indicating that he has not lost their support. Coach Dave Canales affirmed that Dalton provides the best chance for wins, but the organization still believes in Young's potential. Reports suggest several teams have expressed interest in trading for Young, yet the Panthers remain reluctant to part with him. Former coach Ron Rivera emphasized that this experience is part of Young’s growth process as an NFL player.
