The Panthers are 1-4 getting into Dalton and 1-6 total following a blowout 40-7 loss to the Washington Commanders. Carolina will face the Broncos in Denver on Sunday.
Dalton, his spouse, three kids and the household canine had been touring close to downtown Charlotte westbound on Sardis Road approaching Providence Road when the crash occurred Tuesday, a Panthers spokesman stated.
