The Panthers have traded quarterback Kyle Allen to Washington, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
The move comes hours after Carolina reportedly signed XFL QB P.J. Walker. By heading to Washington, Allen will reunite with former Panthers head coach Ron Rivera and QB coach Scott Turner.
Allen became the Panthers' starter last season in Week 3 after Cam Newton suffered a Lisfranc foot injury. The Houston product threw for 3,322 yards and 17 touchdowns during a rocky season for the Panthers. Carolina won four straight games after Allen took over but finished the season 5–11 and fourth in the NFC South.
