  • Bryce Young took 10 more snaps against the Giants (21) than the 11 he saw against the Jets, and that's a natural product of finding more success moving the ball downfield Friday. Matt Corral led the way in quarterback usage once again, though his workload went down (51 percent this week after taking 77 percent last week). With Andy Dalton out, the Panthers got some work in for Jake Luton, who took 10 snaps at the end of the game after not receiving any against the Jets.
  • Raheem Blackshear got the most snaps of the running backs, recording 23 compared to Spencer Brown and Chuba Hubbard's 20 snaps apiece. Blackshear was also the first Panther to find the end zone this preseason. Brown led the group last week while the Panthers continue to evaluate their depth there.
  • Rookie guard Chandler Zavala worked only with the first-team offensive line at right guard, recording the same share as Ikem Ekwonu, Brady Christensen, Bradley Bozeman, and Taylor Moton while blocking for the ones. They took a committee approach with that spot last week, switching that strategy in favor of continuity against the Giants.
  • Michael Jordan didn't slot in with the first team at right guard this week, but he did get a lot of work with the backup line combinations Friday. He and rookie tackle Ricky Lee, likely getting an extended look in Cameron Erving's absence, recorded the most offensive snaps of anyone. Wide receiver Javon Wims and rookie tackle J.D. DiRenzo round out the Panthers who played more than 50 percent of the offensive snaps.

  • The Panthers gave most of their starting defensive front the night off, as Brian Burns, Justin Houston, and Derrick Brown didn't play against the Giants. That created more opportunities for Raequan Williams, who played 31 snaps Friday and capitalized on the opportunity with four tackles, one sack, and two quarterback hits.
  • Amaré Barno and Kobe Jones saw extended work at outside linebacker without Burns, Houston, and Marquis Haynes Sr. on the field. They saw 36 and 34 snaps, respectively.
  • Rookie cornerback Mark Milton recorded the most defensive snaps of the night (45) while the Panthers continue to explore depth options there. He was also on the field for eight special teams snaps.

  • The specialists received more work against the Giants than last week, since the Panthers scored points after being shut out in the preseason opener. This created more work for kicker Matthew Wright, who made both of his field goal attempts (37 yards and 53 yards), and
  • Rookie running back Camerun Peoples was limited to only special teams snaps for the second week in a row. He has yet to record one offensive snap in the preseason.
