Times Picayune: Saints running back Deuce Mcallister mi...

Panthers quarterback Bryce Young never came out of Sunday’s loss to the Browns, but he was moving gingerly after a sack in the first half and he’ll be going for some tests to kick off this week.

Head coach Dave Canales didn’t specify what body part Young injured when he got kicked during the game and said that he thinks the quarterback will be fine for their Week 4 trip to Detroit, but that he’ll get imaging done to make sure there’s nothing more going on.

The Panthers are just taking precaution it sounds like. The story quoted Canales as saying "He was sore a little bit. I think he took a cleat, I can’t remember exactly where. There was some soreness, he was able to battle through it."

Sources: Bucs QB Baker Mayfield suffered a dislocated thumb but got good news on the MRI. No fracture and no ligament or tendon damage.

It's a quick update from the original report we had earlier today. Rapoport said in the earlier post Mayfield was looking at a timeline of 2-4 weeks for his dislocated thumb, but it would be much longer if there was additional damage. The Buccaneers have just recently come out and said it will be a minimum of three weeks Mayfield is out, according to a story on Pro Football Talk.

Per multiple reports, the Vikings have traded the tenth overall pick in the 2024 draft, J.J. McCarthy, to the Giants. In return, the Vikings will receive a 2027 fifth-round pick.

As the story said, the Giants have a need at the position after the injury to Dart. Winston was the starter with Haener the backup in Week 2. McCarthy should slide in as the team's QB2 behind Winston for now. And, there seems like there could be a path for McCarthy to take over as the team's QB1 at some point, but that probably depends on how the Giants season goes with Winston under center. The Giants kept him in check in the rain at home in a win over the Titans, but we've all seen both the good and bad with Winston at QB when he's unleashed. It's a quick, fresh start for McCarthy with a new team.
