CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young got the jersey number he wanted earlier this week after 2022 third-round pick Matt Corral agreed to switch from No. 9 to No. 2.

That’s the starting job that veteran Andy Dalton currently holds.
“Obviously, that’s the way it should be,’’ coach Frank Reich said. “We’ll know when the right time is [to make him the starter]. But listen, he’s got enough going on right now.
