We’re 14 days away from the Carolina Panthers 2021 season opener, so today’s countdown piece is devoted to No. 14 on the roster — quarterback Sam Darnold.
There might not be any other Panther talked about more this offseason than Sam Darnold. Some have high hopes and others have low hopes.
Offensive coordinator Joe Brady said this week that Darnold is “making the routine plays routinely” in Carolina and that the 2018 first-round pick has found his groove in the offense.
“I have something with him. I’m confident in Sam. I feel like he has a great grasp of the offense right now,” Brady said, via Anthony Rizzuti of USAToday.
