Saints and Panthers Face Off in Crucial Rematch Amid Struggles

Uncertainty Surrounds Quarterbacks as Saints Battle Losing Streak and Panthers Seek First Road Win

The New Orleans Saints and Carolina Panthers are preparing for their second matchup this season, with the Saints in a season-high three-game skid and the Panthers under interim coach Chris Tabor.
Saints quarterback Derek Carr, who has been knocked out of a game three times this season, is in the concussion protocol and may not start on Sunday.
Panthers rookie QB Bryce Young, the team's top draft choice, has yet to have a breakout game and has thrown as many interceptions as touchdown passes.
The Panthers are winless on the road this season and haven't won away from home since the 2018 regular-season finale at New Orleans.
Saints safety Tyrann Mathieu suspects the matchup could test New Orleans' defense, which ranks 24th against the run and has struggled with quarterbacks who escape the pocket with regularity.
