Panthers Bring Back Grier, No New QB Drafted

About this episode

The Carolina Panthers have re-signed quarterback Will Grier, a local from North Carolina, ahead of the NFL draft. This move signals their commitment to Bryce Young and Kenny Pickett as their starting and backup quarterbacks, respectively. Grier, a third-round pick in 2019, has not seen regular-season action since his rookie year. The teams decision to pass on drafting a quarterback has raised questions about their faith in the current quarterback class. The Panthers aim to build depth at the position without the growing pains of a rookie quarterback.

It's April 21st. Welcome to NFL News Today, powered by AI and ready for kickoff. Carolina Panthers just brought back quarterback Will Greer, the 31-year-old local from Davidson, North Carolina. This move dropped on Tuesday, right before the NFL draft kicks off this weekend. It backs up head coach Dave Canalis saying they're not hunting for a new quarterback, especially with Bryce Young starting and Kenny Picket as. Back up. Greer was a third-round pick by the Panthers back in 2019. He started two games as a rookie, through zero touchdowns, four picks, and barely hit 54% completions with a brutal QBR of 2.8. Hasn't seen regular season action since bouncing around as a backup. Fans and analysts are siding this hard, wondering if it means the front-off is hates this draft's quarterback class, or just one invest in. Developing one. For Young's future and the team's QB stability, we're hoping it's the draft talent they don't vibe with.

General manager Dan Morgan and Canalis, seem locked in on this depth chart, passing on day three picks for a signal caller. No big expectations for Greer to start, but it fills the room with our rookie growing pains. Bottom line. Panthers are rolling into draft weekend comfy with what they got, eyes on building elsewhere, while the QB spot rides on Young stepping up. The QB.
