The Panthers head coach confirms a major change from last season
Panthers head coach Dave Canales appeared on the Up & Adams show today for an interview, and he ended up answering a question many Panthers fans were wondering about since the start of the preseason:
This is actually a major shift, as last season QB Bryce Young and many of the starters didn’t play at all in the preseason despite the team implementing a new offensive scheme under their brand new head coach. While many thought it made sense to avoid injuries (myself included), Bryce Young and the offense as a whole looked abysmal to start the regular season, to the point that Bryce found himself on the bench come week 3.
Instead, Canales has pivoted, meaning we’ll at least get a few series to see Bryce Young and shiny new wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan and others play together before the meaningful football starts. I definitely support the change, though I am scarred by Cam Newton’s preseason injury many moons ago. Sound off below with your thoughts on this change, Panthers fans!
