Car Accident Involving Panthers’ Quarterback Andy Dalton
The Carolina Panthers announced that starting quarterback Andy Dalton was involved in a car accident in Charlotte on Tuesday.
A team spokesperson stated that Dalton was driving with his wife, three children, and the family’s dog when the incident occurred. Fortunately, no one was transported to the hospital by emergency medical services, but team medical personnel are currently evaluating Dalton’s condition.
The Panthers are scheduled to practice on Wednesday, which may bring further updates about Dalton’s status.
Dalton was appointed as the team’s starting quarterback in Week Three, and head coach Dave Canales has reaffirmed that he will continue in that role for Week Eight following the team’s recent 40-7 loss to the Commanders.
