NFL Network reported on Sunday morning that Bryce Young’s removal from the Carolina Panthers’ lineup was more of a break than a benching, with the former Alabama All-American quarterback expected to return to the starting spot this season.
But the day after Andy Dalton threw for 319 yards and three touchdowns in a 36-22 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders and eight days after he had said, “Bryce Young is our quarterback,” Carolina coach Dave Canales said on Monday: “Andy’s our quarterback. He gives us our best chance to win. That’s the approach as we get ready for the Bengals.”
