The Carolina Panthers utilized \ufeffAndy Dalton\ufeff as a designated fourth-down quarterback in Monday night’s loss to the New Orleans Saints.<\/p>\n

Dalton replaced Bryce Young twice in short-yardage situations, one sideswiped by a false start and the other a pitch to \ufeffMiles Sanders\ufeff.<\/p>\n

Coach Frank Reich noted that Dalton taking short-yardage reps could be a part of the plan moving forward.<\/p>\n

“There’s a lot of different things we could do, but I just feel very comfortable in Andy,” Reich said on Tuesday,\u00a0via the team’s official website. “And some of those things you just want to limit the exposure of Bryce to — and Bryce can do any of it, but you’ve got an experienced veteran.<\/p>\n

“There’s no golden rule that says he can’t come in and play a couple plays in the game. I mean, look at what the Saints do. I know \ufeffTaysom Hill\ufeff’s a different story. But why not do that to a lesser extent if it can be utilized in a positive way?”<\/p>\n
