The Carolina Panthers sign quarterback Kyle Trask after an injury to quarterback Haynes King, according to reports from Yahoo Sports and Newsweek. The move comes as the team prepares for the coming practice week.
Both outlets say the injury occurs during the Hall of Fame Game, where King suffers a hamstring injury this week. With King sidelined, the Panthers add another quarterback to their roster for practice and team preparation. Yahoo Sports frames the signing as an expected addition tied to the injury, while Newsweek reports the signing as completed on Saturday.
The two accounts align on the key details: King is injured in the Hall of Fame Game, and Trask is brought in by Carolina as quarterback depth following that setback. The difference is mainly timing and phrasing—whether the signing is anticipated or already officially finalized—rather than the underlying circumstances.
