Panthers quarterback Andy Dalton’s wife, Jordan, said their family, including their three kids, are “a little banged up” after they were involved in a car accident on Tuesday in Charlotte.
“Thank you to everyone for checking in on our family and for your prayers!” Jordan wrote Wednesday in a note on her Instagram page. “We’re a little banged up but we are BEYOND thankful for the Lords protection over our family yesterday!!”
Dalton and his wife, along with their sons, Noah, Nash, and daughter Finley, were not transported by emergency medical personnel, the Panthers said on Tuesday, adding that the veteran quarterback was being evaluated by team medical personnel.
“Thank you to everyone who responded so quickly to the accident,” Jordan said. “First responders.. friends and strangers… our hearts could not be more grateful for how you showed up for our family.. specifically our kids.”
Jordan added two bible verses and a bunch of heart emojis, as well as a dog emoji.
The Panthers said Dalton and his family, including their dog, were traveling westbound on Sardis Road in Charlotte when the accident occurred.
It came after the Panthers were blown out by the Commanders, 40-7, on Sunday, marking Carolina’s fourth straight loss.
Dalton, 36, threw two interceptions, including a 67-yard pick-six, and no touchdowns with just 93 yards through the air.
The 36-year-old NFL vet took over for Bryce Young after he was benched just two weeks into his second NFL season.
The Panthers (1-6) face the Broncos (4-3) on Oct. 27.
