CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Carolina Panthers coach Dave Canales said he “absolutely” believes Bryce Young can still be a franchise quarterback, adding that the team has no plans to trade the 2023 No. 1 overall pick after benching him earlier this week.
"That’s not something we are really considering," Canales said of the trade speculation swirling around Young. "We have a great situation with our quarterbacks right now with guys that have experience. We love where we are at and it’s all hands on deck."
Andy Dalton will start Sunday’s Week 3 game at Las Vegas.
The 36-year-old journeyman quarterback walked out to the practice field on Wednesday with a big smile on his face, stopping along the way to sign a football for a fan.
