Dalton is now with the Carolina Panthers after signing a two-year contract. He confirmed nice numbers final season, however his position along with his new group would possibly change because the Panthers have Bryce Young designated as its beginning QB.

The former beginning QB of the Dallas Cowboys and New Orleans Saints is prepared to just accept the brand new position, however he won’t scale down his view of himself.

“I view myself as a starter in this league,” Dalton stated in an interview with Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

“I don’t think there are 32 guys better than me.”

“But this is the situation I am in, and I understand that. As soon as I don’t think I’m one of the best 32, or a little lower, I’ll be watching football on TV.”
