Source: Panthers’ Young has high ankle sprain
Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young suffered a high ankle sprain in Sunday’s victory over the New York Jets and is expected to miss this week’s game against the Buffalo Bills, a source confirmed to ESPN.
The nature of Young’s injury was confirmed by an MRI conducted Monday.
Young twisted his right ankle while taking a sack late in the third quarter of Sunday’s 13-6 victory. He went to the locker room with athletic trainers and did not return.
Veteran Andy Dalton finished the game and is expected to start in this Sunday’s home game against the Bills. Dalton finished Sunday with 4-of-7 passing for 60 yards but didn’t lead a scoring drive in the defensive struggle.
Young was 15-of-25 for 138 yards and a touchdown when he sustained the injury trying to escape pressure on a third-down play. He led Carolina to all 13 of its points as the team won its third straight game, the first time that has happened since the start of the 2021 season.
The Panthers improved to 4-3 overall, going above .500 this late in the season for the first time since 2019.
Young’s command of the offense has been key during the winning streak as he has thrown six touchdown passes to two interceptions, one of those a pass that went off the hands of wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan.
His ball security has been a drastic turnaround from the first four games, when he had five touchdown passes to three interceptions with a pair of lost fumbles.
The news on the nature of Young’s injury was first reported by NFL Network.

The franchise posted a statement on X as the Pittsburgh Penguins wrapped up a 3-0 victory against the Sharks.
“During the first intermission of tonight’s game, an offensively worded message which had been externally submitted was inadvertently displayed on the in-arena scoreboard,” the team said. “Sharks Sports & Entertainment deeply regrets that this message, which does not meet our organization’s values, was not detected during our standard review process.
“The Sharks organization sincerely apologizes for this oversight, and we are actively working to determine the origin of the message.”

ICE enforcement in California has been a major topic of conversation over the last few months. In Los Angeles County, the board of supervisors voted to declare a local state of emergency in response to the agency’s operations in the region.
County officials claimed the raids have “created a climate of fear, leading to widespread disruption in daily life and adverse impacts to our regional economy,” including decreased workplace attendance, temporary or permanent business closures, and increased strain on schools, hospitals, and places of worship.

San Jose councilmembers also approved a policy to force ICE agents to unmask during enforcement operations. The council passed the new mandate unanimously.

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels left Sunday’s loss to the Dallas Cowboys early after he suffered a hamstring injury in the third quarter.
The injury prompted fans to compare the second-year quarterback to former NFL star Robert Griffin III. The former Baylor standout had an electric rookie season when he entered the league in 2012 but knee injuries plagued the rest of his career.

Daniels’ mom, Regina Jackson, urged fans to stop the comparisons to Griffin.
“I wish you would stop manifesting RGIII on my son. Words are powerful and that’s all that’s talked about,” she wrote in a post on X.
Daniels was expected to have an MRI on his hamstring on Monday. It’s the second time this season that the reigning Offensive Rookie of the Year went down with an injury. He was dealing with a knee sprain in Weeks 3 and 4.
