PJ Walker Fantasy

Carolina Panthers quarterback PJ Walker completed 10-of-19 passes for 136 yards while rushing for 12 yards in the team's preseason opener against the Washington Commanders. He started one game for Carolina last season while Sam Darnold was injured, but with the team adding Baker Mayfield and third-round rookie Matt Corral this offseason, his chances of making the roster have seemed bleak. It was a solid showing from Walker, who played ahead of Corral interestingly. It appears as though the Panthers' entire quarterback room is in flux, and it's hard to know who will remain come Week 1. If Darnold were to be traded, it is certainly possible that Walker would be the primary backup for the Panthers this season.

Carolina Panthers quarterback P.J. Walker has fallen to No. 3 on the QB depth chart behind Sam Darnold and rookie Matt Corral. Head coach Matt Rhule could elect to keep three signal-callers on the roster like he did in 2020, but the team has bigger questions besides Walker, namely figuring out if they are going to stick with Darnold or trade for Baker Mayfield or Jimmy Garoppolo. Rhule coached Walker at Temple and likes the fact that he's a dual-threat quarterback, but Walker will surely be a goner if the Panthers trade for either Mayfield or Jimmy G this offseason. The 27-year-old won a spot start in each of his first two seasons with the Panthers, going a combined 68-for-122 for 730 yards, two touchdowns and eight interceptions.

Carolina Panthers quarterback P.J. Walker went 22-for-29 for 167 yards and one pick in Sunday's win over the Cardinals. Walker got the start over the recently-signed Cam Newton but underwhelmed in the contest while Newton was responsible for two touchdowns. While it's very likely Newton was signed to start for Carolina going forward, there is no clear indication yet on who will start in the next few games. Regardless, Walker is well off the fantasy radar given he is unproven and not explosive.
