Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper reportedly signed off on the team benching second-year quarterback Bryce Young for veteran Andy Dalton, per Adam Jahns and Joe Person of The Athletic:
"After the Panthers managed 13 points in getting outscored by 60 the first two weeks, Canales — along with Morgan and Tilis — benched Young, which Tepper signed off on, according to a source who was granted anonymity so that he could speak freely."
Young, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft, struggled during his rookie season, a year when the Panthers collapsed, fired first-year head coach Frank Reich midseason and finished 2-15.
