Panthers' Shaq Thompson: Impresses again in Week 2
Thompson recorded 14 total tackles (eight solo) during Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Chargers.
Despite Carolina's defensive struggles, Thompson has remained a bright spot, racking up an impressive 24 total tackles across the team's first two contests. The veteran inside linebacker has now led the entire game in total tackles in both Week 1 and Week 2, and he's expected to continue being a valuable IDP option as the Panthers travel to Las Vegas in Week 3.

Panthers' Andy Dalton: Becomes starting quarterback
The Panthers will start Dalton versus the Raiders in Week 3 and send 2023 No. 1 overall pick Bryce Young to the bench, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Dalton will get an opportunity to see whether he can spark Carolina's offense, which added wideouts Diontae Johnson and rookie first-round pick Xavier Legette over the offseason, with the hope of improving things alongside incumbent Adam Thielen. In two games this season Young threw just 245 passing yards combined, plus three interceptions, with a miserable 3.2 yards per pass attempt Week 2 versus the Chargers. Dalton's starting tenure will begin with a tough Week 3 road matchup against Las Vegas, but if he can stabilize things on offense for the 0-2 Panthers, the 36-year-old veteran could have a clear path to retaining the No. 1 gig for the remainder of the 2024 season.

Panthers' Bryce Young: Benched in favor of Dalton
The Panthers decided Monday to bench Young and start veteran Andy Dalton beginning Week 3 versus the Raiders, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Panthers coach Dave Canales called Young "our quarterback" after Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Chargers, but after a disastrous rookie year, the 2023 No. 1 overall pick will now head to the bench after just two games in his sophomore season. Carolina will turn to Dalton after an 0-2 start with the hopes of finding some type of rhythm on offense, with Young having thrown for just 245 passing yards combined, three interceptions and no touchdowns in that span. It's unclear whether the Panthers will consider giving Young another chance under center down the stretch.

Panthers' Bryce Young: Set to keep starting job
Head coach Dave Canales said after Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Chargers that Young will remain the team's starting quarterback heading into the Panthers' Week 3 matchup with the Raiders, David Newton of ESPN.com reports. "Bryce is our quarterback,'' Canales said. "We're going to continue to shore and fix the things we need to fundamentally, from a scheme standpoint, all those things."
After a rough rookie year, Young hasn't shown any sign of improvement in his sophomore campaign under the watch of Canales, who was hired as Carolina's head coach this offseason after he helped coax a career-best season out of Baker Mayfield while serving as Tampa Bay's offensive coordinator in 2023. The Panthers haven't been competitive in losses to the Saints and Chargers to begin the season, with Young completing just 31 of 56 pass attempts (55.4 percent) for 245 yards (4.4 YPA), no touchdowns and three interceptions while taking six sacks. Though Young is now just 2-16 as a starter through his first two NFL seasons, the Panthers aren't yet willing to pull the plug on the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, whom the franchise invested significant resources into acquiring. That being said, if the Panthers offense continues to sputter in Week 3 or in any future starts that may follow for Young, the clamor for veteran backup Andy Dalton to replace Young could grow louder.

Panthers' Eddy Pineiro: Drills another kick Sunday
Pineiro made one field goal during Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Chargers.
Pineiro remains perfect through Week 2, as the 29-year-old kicker split the uprights on a 38-yard field-goal attempt in the third quarter of Sunday's loss. Carolina's offensive struggles limited Pineiro to just one kick attempt in Week 2, which could be a recurring theme as the Panthers travel to take on the Raiders in Week 3.

Panthers' Ja'Tavion Sanders: Struggles again in Week 2
Sanders caught both of his targets for eight yards during Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Chargers.
Despite his limited volume, Sanders out-snapped Tommy Tremble (24 to 22) in the latter's first week back from a hamstring injury. The Panthers may have been trying to ease Tremble back in, but it's promising that Sanders continued to see significant playing time. Regardless of how much the rookie is on the field, he'll struggle to provide fantasy relevance unless Carolina's offense improves -- the unit has scored just 6.5 points per game across the first two weeks.

Panthers' Jonathan Mingo: Just one catch in Week 2
Mingo caught one of his two targets for one yard during Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Chargers.
The 23-year-old wideout has had an unimpressive start to his sophomore campaign, logging just three catches for 41 yards over the first two games. Mingo did out-snap rookie Xavier Legette (30 to 20) after playing behind him in Week 1, but it ultimately won't matter much if Carolina's offense continues to struggle. Expect Mingo to have a hard time finding fantasy relevance working as the Panthers' No. 3 or 4 wide receiver when the team travels to Las Vegas in Week 3.

Panthers' Xavier Legette: Disappoints Sunday
Legette wasn't targeted during Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Chargers.
After head coach Dave Canales raved about Legette's Week 1 performance (4-35-0) to reporters Wednesday, the 2024 first-round pick didn't even see a target in Week 2. Legette was on the field for just 20 offensive snaps Sunday, playing behind Jonathan Mingo (30), Diontae Johnson (45) and Adam Thielen (45). With Legette's inconsistent playing time and the Panthers offensive struggles through the first two weeks, it may be tough for the rookie to make an impact as Carolina takes on the Raiders in Week 3.

Panthers' Raheem Blackshear: Logs no offensive snaps in Week 2
Blackshear returned three kickoffs for 81 yards and one punt for 13 yards during Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Chargers.
Blackshear was able to suit for Sunday's affair despite missing practices earlier in the week due to personal reasons, and he impressed as Carolina's top return man. The 26-year-old's longest return went for 31 yard on a kickoff in the second quarter. Despite showing some juice in the return game, Blackshear didn't play a single offensive snap in Week 2 and appears to be an afterthought in Carolina's backfield.

Panthers' Miles Sanders: Ten touches in loss
Sanders rushed seven times for 20 yards and caught all three of his targets for five yards during Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Chargers.
Sanders, along with the rest of the Panthers' offense, struggled during Sunday's affair, and the 27-year-old running back tallied just 2.5 yards per touch. Sanders was far less effective than Chuba Hubbard on the ground as well, as Hubbard recorded 64 rushing yards on just 10 carries. Carolina's offense has scored just 13 total points in the team's first two games, leaving Sanders' fantasy relevance in question as the Panthers prepare to take on the Raiders in Week 3.
