With no surefire quarterback prospect available to them (or any team) in the 2022 NFL draft, the Carolina Panthers will have to be flexible in their approach starting next Thursday. So, part of that approach could see the team take a chance on a passer a little later than where they’re currently sitting at the sixth overall selection.
If so, one of those options is University of North Carolina’s Sam Howell—who will run through a private workout for the Panthers. Per ESPN senior NFL reporter Jeremy Fowler, this is the latest instance of Carolina performing their due diligence on the class as we move closer to go-time.
The Carolina Panthers are conducting a private workout with UNC quarterback Sam Howell, per sources. He acquitted himself well in interviews and the team is following up with a throwing session. Carolina doing due diligence on all the top QBs.
