Sam Darnold Situation Worth Monitoring With Patriots Playing Panthers In Week 9
Darnold left Sunday's game due to a concussion
The Patriots will visit the Panthers next Sunday, and there’s at least some chance that Sam Darnold won’t be under center in Carolina.
The fourth-year quarterback left Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons after suffering a concussion on a brutal hit during the fourth quarter. Darnold did not return, and the Panthers eventually earned a 19-13 victory, clinched by a Stephon Gilmore interception.

The Patriots and Panthers will kick off at 1 p.m. ET.
