Will Grier impresses during 1-on-1 drills
At least one beat reporter came away impressed by backup quarterback Will Grier’s throws during one-on-one drills.
Will Grier was absolutely spinning it on several deep throws during one on ones.

The touch on Grier’s deep ball is his greatest asset and probably the best reason why the Panthers drafted him. Here’s a look at Grier hitting wide receiver Curtis Samuel in stride with T.J. Green in coverage.

This is all well and good, but if Grier hasn’t dramatically improved his processing speed during live game situations, then he won’t stand a chance of beating out P.J. Walker for the right to be Teddy Bridgewater’s first backup. Walker also drew praise for some of his throws.
