Bryce Young Fantasy

Carolina Panthers rookie quarterback Bryce Young (ankle) has officially been ruled out for the Week 3 game on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks, and there's a chance he could also be sidelined next week. Veteran backup Andy Dalton will make his first start for the Panthers in a hostile environment on the road in Seattle, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect much from the offense in this one. At best, Dalton will be on the fantasy radar as a low-end QB2 option for those in superflex leagues. Jake Luton is expected to be called up from the practice squad to serve as Dalton's backup on Sunday. The Panthers could go with a more run-heavy game script with Young not playing, which would be good news for RBs Miles Sanders and Chuba Hubbard.

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young (ankle) hasn't practiced this week and is not expected to suit up for the Week 3 matchup versus the Seattle Seahawks. The rookie quarterback suffered an ankle injury at some point during last week's matchup against the New Orleans Saints. He was able to play through the pain, but will now possibly miss some time. The organization doesn't expect Young to miss more than two games. That being said, Young could possibly be on the sideline for Week 4 as well. The team will likely wait and see how his ankle issue progresses over the next week or so. Until then, Andy Dalton will be under center for the Panthers.

Carolina Panthers rookie quarterback Bryce Young (ankle) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday and is not expected to play in Week 3 on Sunday on the road against the Seattle Seahawks. Veteran Andy Dalton took first-team repetitions at practice on Thursday for the second day in a row with Young hurting, and he's now set for his first start of the season. It's doesn't sound like a particularly serious injury for the first overall pick of this year's draft, but the Panthers don't want to jeopardize his development by throwing him out there on an injured ankle. In a hostile environment, look for Carolina to lean on their ground game as much as possible with Dalton under center, which is good news for running backs Miles Sanders and Chuba Hubbard. Dalton will be a low-end QB2 option for those desperate in superflex leagues.
