The Canucks have now reached an agreement to sign two highly experienced superstar players to the Abbotsford AHL, it was formally announced today.
To put it mildly, the Carolina Panthers’ 2024 NFL season has been difficult. Since selecting quarterback Bryce Young with the first overall choice in the 2023 NFL Draft, the struggling team has yet to produce the outcomes they had hoped for.
Earlier in the season, Carolina benched Young and started experienced journeyman Andy Dalton as quarterback, a decision that no one anticipated from Panthers head coach Dave Canales and his coaching staff.
The team’s victory over the Las Vegas Raiders on the road in Week 3 appeared to be a result of the transfer, but it was short-lived, as they haven’t won a game since.
The Panthers have been forced to rely on Young going into Week 8’s game against the Denver Broncos at Mile High’s Empower Field after Dalton was injured in an automobile accident.
which hurt his thumb. As a result, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that the veteran, wide outs Diontae Johnson, and Adam Thielen will not play in this game.
It doesn’t seem good for the Panthers because Young, 23, will have to face Sean Payton’s team without two of his greatest wide receivers, on top of the difficult task of facing a formidable defense in Denver.
Young has a chance to prove that he is worthy of starting for this club going forward or for another team in the league, but the chances are definitely against him putting on a show in Week 8 while traveling.
