Panthers have been hustling for back-up quarterbacks all-off season. They shipped out Andy Dalton, locked in Kenny Pickett on a one-year deal to back up Bryce Young, and now they bribe back Will Greer to fill out the room. Earlier this week, they inked Greer, the guy they drafted back in 2019. That pretty much closes the door and grabbing a quarterback in the upcoming draft, especially with holes everywhere else on the roster. Fans still roast that third-round pick on Greer. Doos started just two games, hit 53.8% of passes, zero touchdowns, four picks. Right after him, win studs like CJ. Gardner Johnson and Max Crosby, total whiff, that stings. Scouts say Greer ain't some iron-clad bit, so a late-round flyer or undrafted guy could push for that third spot. They eyed Vanderbilt's Diego Pavia, a Heisman runner-up, but his games got question marks. Bottom line, Caroline is punting the long-term backup surge to next year, stacking depth for now, and eyeing bigger fixes ahead.
