Andrew Gregory Dalton (born October 29, 1987) is an American professional football quarterback for the Carolina Panthers of the National Football League (NFL). Nicknamed the "Red Rifle", he played college football for the TCU Horned Frogs, where he became the school's leader in quarterback wins and won the 2011 Rose Bowl.^[1] He was selected by the Cincinnati Bengals in the second round of the 2011 NFL draft.^[2]

During his first nine seasons with the Bengals, Dalton led the team to five consecutive playoff appearances from 2011 to 2015 and received three Pro Bowl selections. In his first season, he and wide receiver A. J. Green set records for completions and yards by a rookie quarterback/receiver combination.^[3] Dalton also set the Bengals franchise records for passing touchdowns, single-season passing yards, and single-season passing touchdowns.^[4]

Despite his regular season success, Dalton went winless in the playoffs and was released by the Bengals in 2020 following four consecutive losing seasons. He spent his next three seasons alternating as a starter and backup with the Dallas Cowboys, Chicago Bears, and New Orleans Saints for one year each. Dalton joined the Panthers in 2023.
