Despite benching him in favor of Baker Mayfield on Sunday, the Panthers will start PJ Walker against the Falcons on Thursday Night Football, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.
Walker started against the Bengals but was pulled to start the second half. He went 3-for-10 on the day and threw two interceptions in the poor showing. Mayfield ended up completing 14 of his 20 pass attempts and threw two touchdowns in the 42–21 loss. It’s worth noting that quarterback Sam Darnold was also activated from injured reserve on Monday, but Walker will get another shot.
