Darnold will start Week 17

By Jared Smola | Updated on Wed, Dec 29 2021 7:44 PM UTC
Sam Darnold Headshot

Panthers QB Sam Darnold will start this weekend's game vs. the Saints, HC Matt Rhule said Wednesday. Rhule added that QB Cam Newton "will be ready," but it's unclear if he'll play at all. Darnold, of course, isn't a recommended fantasy play even if he's out there for 100% of the snaps.
