Panthers' P.J. Walker: Turns it over twice
Walker completed 22 of 29 passes for 167 yards and an interception but threw for a two-point conversion in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Cardinals. He also rushed three times for six yards and lost a fumble.
Walker started in place of Sam Darnold (shoulder), but he quickly saw fellow quarterback Cam Newton steal the spotlight. Newton began by rushing for a two-yard touchdown on Carolina's first drive, then threw a two-yard score on the next one. In his first game back with the Panthers, Newton only featured here and there, but his overall impact still trumped that of Walker, who turned it over twice despite otherwise finishing with a tidy completion percentage. Looking ahead to Week 11's matchup versus Washington, it'll be interesting to see whether Walker's familiarity with the offense will be enough for him to stave off his newfound competition from Newton to start at quarterback, as it was revealed Sunday that Darnold is unlikely to play again this season.
