With Young set to miss Sunday’s game, who will replace him at quarterback?
Veteran quarterback Andy Dalton will start in Young’s place. Dalton signed with the Panthers in the offseason after spending 2022 with the New Orleans Saints.
“I would say the difference would end up being him being an experienced quarterback, having a ton of reps,” Panthers offensive coordinator Thomas Brown said about Dalton in Thursday’s press conference. “Obviously playing this opponent before in the past. It might give him some more insight into what he likes to be called in a game when it comes to some of the drop back game, play-action pass, and that inventory standpoint. But we’ll keep the core of our offense together.”
Dalton is best known for his time as the starter of the Cincinnati Bengals from 2011-2019. Dalton has thrown for 38,150 yards, 244 touchdowns, and 144 interceptions in his career.
The Panthers face the Seahawks on Sunday at 4:05 p.m. ET on CBS.
