Panthers name their starting QB for Week 10 matchup vs. Giants
Are we back in the Bryce Age?
Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales announced on Wednesday that Bryce Young will be the team's starting quarterback for their Week 10 matchup against the New York Giants. The decision comes off the heels of yesterday's 23-22 win over the New Orleans Saints.
Young connected on 16 of his 26 passing attempts for 171 yards, a touchdown and an interception in the triumph. In addition to recording his third career victory as a starter, the 23-year-old also led his first game-winning touchdown drive in the NFL—orchestrating a four-play, 64-yard possession that ended in a 16-yard score by running back Chuba Hubbard.
The former No. 1 overall pick returned to the starting lineup in Week 8, in place of an injured Andy Dalton. Over his two starts since, Young connected on 63.5 percent of his passes for 395 yards, three scores and three picks.
Dalton's last outing came against the Washington Commanders in Week 7, where he threw for 93 yards and two interceptions.
