Panthers sign QB Kyle Trask with Hall of Fame game hero Haynes King sidelined
The Carolina Panthers signed quarterback Kyle Trask on Sunday, forming a trio behind starting QB Bryce Young and backup Kenny Pickett. Anticipated to miss time is rookie Haynes King, a Hall of Fame game hero who suffered a hamstring injury. Trask, with only 11 career pass attempts, has limited game experience after three seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The Panthers secured Trask due to his familiarity with offensive coordinator Brad Idzik. Trask might get a chance to play on Saturday against the Buffalo Bills. King, an undrafted rookie from Georgia Tech, scored the winning touchdown in the Panthers' 33-30 preseason victory over the Arizona Cardinals on Thursday night in Canton, Ohio. Last season, King was recognized as the Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Year.
