Carolina Panthers quarterback Andy Dalton is being evaluated by team doctors after he was involved in a car accident in Charlotte, N.C.

A team spokesperson said that Dalton, his wife, three children and dog were traveling together at the time of Tuesday’s accident. The team said no one in the party was taken by ambulance or immediate medical attention.

Officials did not publicly provide immediate insight into the severity of the crash and no further context regarding the number of vehicles involved was released.

Dalton, 36, has thrown for 989 yards with seven touchdowns and six interceptions in five starts for the Panthers this season. He replaced Bryce Young as the starter for the Panther in Week 3.

A 14-year veteran, Dalton has tallied 39,500 career passing yards with 253 touchdowns and 150 interceptions, mostly from his nine-year tenure with Cincinnati (2011-2019).

Carolina (1-6) plays at Denver (4-3) on Sunday.
