Will Grier Returning to Panthers on Reported Deal

The move adds experienced depth behind Bryce Young following his March release by Dallas.

Overview

  • ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that quarterback Will Grier is signing with Carolina, rejoining the team that drafted him in 2019.
  • Grier will enter a quarterback room that already features starter Bryce Young and recent addition Kenny Pickett.
  • The Cowboys released Grier in March after he signed a February futures contract, with Dak Prescott, Joe Milton, and Sam Howell set at the position.
  • He spent last season on Dallas's practice squad and previously had short stints with the Bengals, Patriots, Chargers, and Eagles.
  • Grier's only NFL starts came as a Panthers rookie in 2019, when he went 28-for-52 for 228 yards with no touchdowns and four interceptions, suggesting a depth role in Carolina.
