He’s going to let you know when he throws a dot and shoots it through about three defenders. “He’s a guy that’s going to let you know when he bombs you. “I want them to push the envelope," he said. “Every day you just want to go out there and pick him off 12 times just to shut him up," cornerback Donte Jackson said of Mayfield. “He’s a competitor. “He’s got an edge to him. Mayfield noted Darnold has a sarcastic side he wasn’t aware of before they became teammates.

Panthers HC Matt Rhule on Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold: 'They ... (NFL.com)

The Carolina Panthers' first preseason game offered no definitive statements in the quarterback competition between Baker Mayfield and Sam Darnold.

The third-round rookie finished 1-of-9 passing and was outplayed by Washington's fifth-round draft pick -- a UNC product -- Sam Howell.

Mayfield made the start and displayed solid development in the offense as he learns the new system. "No, that was for today, that was just for today," Rhule said of Mayfield starting. The coach declined to name a starter heading into the second preseason game.
