(Jim Dedmon-USA TODAY Sports) Sam Darnold
Newly acquired quarterback Sam Darnold might be a work in progress during his first full season with the Carolina Panthers in 2021.
Sam Darnold clearly has a lot on his plate in 2021. The Carolina Panthers have now officially hitched their wagon to the quarterback after acquiring him via trade from the New York Jets, a move that resulted in previous starter Teddy Bridgewater being shipped to the Denver Broncos prior to the NFL Draft.
It’s clear Bridgewater wasn’t the right fit and the Panther deserve credit for realizing this rather than going with the player once again next season.
