WATCH: Mayfield and Darnold to compete for Carolina Panthers’ starting QB gig
Apr. 25, 2024 – 02:33 – The Carolina Panthers provided quarterback Baker Mayfield with the fresh start he wanted in 2022. If Mayfield is going to make the most of his second chance, he first must prove he can beat out Sam Darnold in a quarterback competition.
It’s a training camp battle no one would have expected before the 2018 NFL Draft. Mayfield and Darnold were competing to be viewed as the best passer in the 2018 draft class. Ultimately, the Cleveland Browns selected Mayfield with the first pick and the New York Jets landed Darnold with the No. 3 selection.
