Panthers Plan to Replace Andy Dalton?

Friday, March 6, 7:10 PM

The Carolina Panthers intend to replace backup quarterback Andy Dalton this offseason, according to David Newton of ESPN.com. "Moving on is the plan, even if it means releasing Dalton and leaving $3.83 million in dead cap money with a post-June 1 parting," Newton wrote. This loosely echoes previous comments from Panthers general manager Dan Morgan, who said the team wants to develop a young backup behind Bryce Young and that Dalton would have to compete for a roster spot. At this point, it sounds unlikely that he'll be back for 2026, with the Panthers perhaps looking toward free agency or the NFL Draft for a younger replacement. Newton identified veteran journeyman quarterbacks Kenny Pickett, Zach Wilson, Trey Lance, and Sam Howell as potential QB2 options in Carolina going forward.

Bills Restructure Josh Allen's Contract, Create $12 Million in 2026 Cap Space

Wednesday, March 11, 6:58 AM

The Buffalo Bills have restructured quarterback Josh Allen's contract to create $12 million in 2026 cap space, per ESPN's Field Yates. It's not entirely clear what Buffalo is looking to do with the cap flexibility, but the team now has a little more wiggle room as it looks to build out a Super Bowl-caliber roster. Buffalo has a few notable pieces of their 2025 roster, such as edge rusher Joey Bosa and linebacker Matt Milano, who are currently lingering in free agency. The team could simply be looking to bring players back into the fold, or could be angling for a sizable addition. As far as Allen is concerned, the 29-year-old signal caller remains under contract with Buffalo through the end of the current decade. His long-term contract structure with the Bills affords the team the flexibility to make these types of moves.
