Bryce Young throws for 2 TDs and leads Panthers to 25-14 win over injury-riddled Eagles

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Chuba Hubbard rushed for 120 yards and a touchdown to help his team defeat injury-plagued Philadelphia Eagles 25-14. Quarterback Bryce Young contributed 281 passing yards and two touchdowns for the Panthers. Eagles quarterback Tanner McKee struggled mightily, completing only 26 of 45 passes for 215 yards and a touchdown.

The Eagles were without star quarterback Jalen Hurts, who is sidelined with a blood clot in his calf, and running back Saquon Barkley, who missed his second straight game with a hamstring injury. McKee's performance was further hampered by several fumbles and poor decisions, including a third-and-14 sideline pass that sailed out of bounds and drew boos from the crowd.

Despite these setbacks, the Eagles managed to cut Carolina's lead to 10-7 at halftime on a 2-yard run by Dameon Pierce. The offense struggled all game, with the Eagles generating a season-low 37 total yards in the first quarter and punting on their first five drives. Philadelphia also suffered injuries, with edge rusher Nolan Smith leaving the game in the first half with a concussion and running back Carson Steele suffering a shoulder injury.
