Sam Darnold is expected to be out 4-6 weeks with a high-ankle sprain. He is expected to get a second opinion to confirm the injury. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter)

This was great news considering how the injury initially looked. Darnold will likely only see meaningful game reps if Baker Mayfield is injured or ineffective. Mayfield remains the Panthers’ Week 1 starter.
