CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) A day after backup quarterback Matt Moore injured a leg, the Carolina Panthers acquired Josh McCown from Miami on Friday for a future draft pick.

McCown had signed with the Dolphins in the offseason after starting 33 games in a six seasons in Arizona, Detroit and Oakland. The former third-round pick has thrown 35 touchdowns and 40 interceptions.

McCown could serve as Jake Delhomme's backup if Moore is unable to play in the season opener Sept. 7 at Arizona. Moore bruised his left leg when he was sacked late in the third quarter Thursday night in a preseason loss to Pittsburgh.

The move likely means third-stringer Brett Basanez will be released when the Panthers reduce their roster to 53 players Saturday.

Tough guy, shitty QB.

What's this his 4th or 5th team now?

I love the fact that we got at least some value for him.

This is his fourthteam since he left Arizona after the 2005 season (5th overall). He's since played for Detroit, Oakland, Miami, and now Carolina.

His stats... Well I wouldn't want him as a backup.

35 TDs, 40 INTs, 6,582 yds and a 71.6 rating

You should be. Dolphins win in this trade.

I'm not sure how to feel about this but since Matt Moore got a bit banged up against Pitt I guess we needed an insurance policy. I wish we had just waited and gotten Chris Simms.
