Panthers not considering trading benched Bryce Young, coach says

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers coach Dave Canales didn't hesitate Wednesday when asked if Bryce Young still has a chance to be a franchise quarterback.

"Absolutely,'' he said of the Young, who was benched Monday after an 0-2 start to this season and 2-16 start to his pro career.

Canales also debunked any possibility the Panthers would consider trading the top pick of the 2023 draft, who has been replaced by 36-year-old Andy Dalton for Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders.

"That's not something we're really considering,'' he said.
