Panthers interim head coach Steve Wilks said Wednesday that he would like to give Darnold some snaps in a game before giving him another chance to start, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Baker Mayfield will start Sunday's game in Baltimore, with Darnold serving as the backup and P.J. Walker (ankle) missing the first of what likely will be multiple games. The possibility of Darnold getting some snaps hurts Mayfield's already-limited value, and an in-game benching is in play with any starting quarterback for Carolina this season.
