Spencer Brown Scores, Paces Panthers' Backfield With 10 Carries

Carolina Panthers running back Spencer Brown handled 10 carries for 36 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's preseason opener against the Washington Commanders. He spent most of the 2021 season on Carolina's practice squad but looked determined to make the roster on Saturday with a couple of bulldozing runs. Chuba Hubbard was the backup running back last season and […]

Rashard Higgins Scores In Panthers' Preseason Opener

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Rashard Higgins, a new addition to the team's receiving corps, hauled in all three of his targets for 22 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's preseason win over the Washington Commanders. He scored on an eight-yard dime from quarterback Sam Darnold in the first quarter. The Panthers have D.J. Moore and Robbie Anderson listed as starters on […]

Matt Corral Struggles In Preseason Debut

Carolina Panthers third-round draft selection Matt Corral completed just one of nine passes for 11 yards and added six yards rushing in his preseason debut against the Washington Commanders. The rookie was the fourth and final Carolina quarterback to see the field, which is a bit concerning. He saw fewer snaps than PJ Walker, who played for […]

PJ Walker Leads Panthers With 136 Passing Yards

Carolina Panthers quarterback PJ Walker completed 10-of-19 passes for 136 yards while rushing for 12 yards in the team's preseason opener against the Washington Commanders. He started one game for Carolina last season while Sam Darnold was injured, but with the team adding Baker Mayfield and third-round rookie Matt Corral this offseason, his chances of making the roster have seemed bleak. It was […]

Sam Darnold Throws TD Pass In Panthers' Preseason Opener

Carolina Panthers quarterback Sam Darnold completed two of three passes for 16 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 23-21 preseason victory over the Washington Commanders. Darnold saw the field after Baker Mayfield started the game and led the offense to a field goal on its opening drive. Rashard Higgins was on the receiving end of Darnold's touchdown pass, which was a […]

Kyle Busch Starts 29th At Richmond Sunday

Kyle Busch has not been having the best season for Joe Gibbs Racing. Starting 29th on Sunday at Richmond is far from optimal. The younger Busch in the No. 18 car ran a long time on the track and even had 20,25, and 30 lap intervals. What that showed was his car did get faster […]

Chase Elliott Not Happy In Qualifying On Saturday

Unlike teammate Kyle Larson, Chase Elliott was far from pleased with his qualifying effort at Richmond on Saturday. Elliott and his No. 9 car will begin 23rd on Sunday from Richmond Raceway. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver does have two top-five results in his last six efforts at the short track. Those came in the […]

Christopher Bell Starts 21st On Sunday At Richmond

Christopher Bell surprised many for the wrong reasons on Saturday when it came to qualifying at Richmond. Bell has thrived on the short track in his time at the top level.

Chris Buescher Long Shot To Finish Top Ten

Chris Buescher begins 18th at Richmond on Sunday for the Federated Auto Parts 400. The RFK Racing driver did not fare as well. Brad Keselowski seemed to have similar speed in practice. Keselowski qualified sixth for what it is worth. The No. 17 Ford did end up in 15th during the Spring race. Add in […]

Joey Logano Could Move Up At Richmond

If Joey Logano is going to end some of his struggles, Richmond might just be the track to do it at. The Team Penske driver has four top-five results in his last six races at Richmond Raceway. Logano has even led 6.1% of his laps with an average finish of 6.8. Considering he starts 17th […]

Chase Briscoe Begins In Row Eight For Sunday

Chase Briscoe qualified 15th for the Federated Auto Parts 400 on Sunday at Richmond Raceway. Briscoe's Ford was quick in sectors on the 0.75-mile track but lost time in the final turn in qualifying. That seemed to impact his five and ten lap intervals as well. No one was sure what the problem was but […]

Ty Gibbs Enjoying Extended Run With 23XI Racing

Ty Gibbs is getting more and more comfortable with the Next-Gen car at the highest level of NASCAR. He starts Richmond in 14th on Sunday and if the Toyotas run well later in the race as expected, that might benefit Gibbs. In his Xfinity days, the driver of the No. 45 car ran well enough […]

Austin Dillon Begins Sunday 12th At Richmond

Austin Dillon is a driver that tends to perform well on shorter tracks such as Richmond. The Richard Childress racer begins Sunday from the 12th position at Richmond. Historically, Dillon and his No. 3 Chevy does have four top-ten results in his last six appearances on the 0.75-mile track. That includes a top-five outcome which […]

Bubba Wallace looked pretty good in his 23XI Racing car on Saturday in qualifying and practice. He will start Sunday from the inside of Row 6 for the Federated Auto Parts 400. The No. 23 car has been performing well but more importantly, Wallace just was extended on a multi-year deal. With a string of […]

New York Yankees reliever Scott Effross closed out his club's 3-2 win over the Red Sox on Saturday, picking up his second save of the year and first with his new club. The 28-year-old made it interesting by allowing a pair of singles, but he ultimately got Xander Bogaerts to pop out to end the […]

Jonathan Williams Leads Commanders in Rushing

Washington Commanders running back Jonathan Williams carried the ball five times for 31 yards in Saturday’s preseason loss to the Panthers. Williams came into this game as an afterthought but appeared to have made an impact with his short-yardage pickups. The 25-year-old even went in to replace Antonio Gibson on a fourth down conversion that […]

Terry McLaurin Catches One of Two Targets

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin had one reception for 17 yards in the preseason loss to the Carolina Panthers. McLaurin’s lone reception was the longest completion for Carson Wentz on a day where the signal-caller was pretty efficient. The 26-year-old is entering his fourth season with what most would say is the best quarterback […]

Curtis Samuel Catches Two Passes in Preseason Opener

Washington Commanders wide receiver Curtis Samuel saw two targets in Washington’s loss to the Carolina Panthers. Samuel was the recipient of Carson Wentz’s first pass of the game, racking up six yards before converting on third down off an eight-yard reception.
