The Jacksonville Jaguars drafted Lutton in the sixth round of the 2020 NFL Draft. He’s spent time on several different NFL team rosters since 2020. Lutton was on the New Orleans Saints in 2022.
Lutton went 60/110 passing for 624 passing yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions for his NFL career. All of those stats came in his rookie season with the Jaguars.
The Panthers have one other quarterback, Andy Dalton, on the 53-man roster in Week 3. Dalton will be the clear starter for the Panthers at quarterback if Young is unable to play the Seattle Seahawks in Week 3.
