According to Jeff Howe of The Athletic, QB Baker Mayfield is expected to be named the starter for the Carolina Panthers for Week 1 when the organization is ready to make an announcement.
Fantasy Impact: Mayfield has been competing with the incumbent QB Sam Darnold, but as Week 2 of the preseason approaches, the expectation is Mayfield will start in the regular season.

Mayfield could potentially revive his career in a new destination with weapons like WR DJ Moore and RB Christian McCaffrey at his disposal.
