The Dolphins traded QB Josh McCown to the Panthers on Friday, according to a report on FOXsports.com.
Terms of the deal were said to be not yet known.
The Panthers had a need for security at quarterback after backup Matt Moore suffered a shin injury on Thursday. Carolina expressed optimism about Moore's status, but the trade signals it felt compelled to add more of a cushion behind Jake Delhomme, who underwent Tommy John surgery on his throwing elbow last year.
McCown, who received a $2.5 million signing bonus after signing with the Dolphins in the offseason, was in the running to become Miami's starter before it signed Chad Pennington.
