“We are a little confused, but we are BEYOND thankful for the Lord’s protection of our family yesterday!” says Jordan Dalton

Carolina Panthers quarterback Andy Dalton and his family are “a little confused” but OK after a car crash Tuesday afternoon, his wife Jordan Dalton said on social media.

“Thank you everyone for checking in with our family and for your prayers!” Jordan wrote in a post on Instagram to update fans on the family’s condition. “We are a little confused, but we are BEYOND grateful for the Lord’s protection of our family yesterday! Thank you to everyone who responded so quickly to the accident… first responders… friends and strangers… our hearts could not be more grateful for the way you showed up for our family… especially our children.”

Dalton, 36, and his family were “involved in a car accident” in Charlotte, North Carolina, on Tuesday afternoon, the Panthers said in a statement.

“Neither Dalton nor his family were transported by emergency medical personnel,” the team said. “Dalton is being evaluated by medical team personnel.”

Dalton and his wife Jordan had their three children and their dog in the car with them at the time of the crash, according to local WBTV.

PEOPLE has reached out to the Panthers for more information on the condition of Dalton and his family.

The Daltons married in 2011 and share three children together: Noah, 10, Nash, 7, and Finley, 6.

“So many highs and lows…laughter and tears…and every moment the Lord had a purpose!” Jordan wrote on Instagram in July, in honor of their 13th wedding anniversary and her marriage to her “best friend” and “love of my life.”

“So grateful to be by your side in this crazy life!!!!” she added.

The Panthers’ quarterback originally started the season as the backup to second-year starter Bryce Young, but Dalton took over as the team’s starter three weeks into the season after Carolina started 0-2.

Dalton briefly seemed to revive the Panthers, leading them to a 36-22 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders on three touchdown passes. But the Panthers appear to have hit a plateau again, losing their last four games, making them the NFL’s worst team with a 1-6 record.

The TCU graduate was selected No. 35 overall in the second round of the 2011 NFL Draft.

Dalton played nine seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals, where he earned three Pro Bowl selections and was nicknamed “Red Rifle” for his hair color and strong arm. Dalton has become a backup quarterback in the second half of his career, playing several seasons with the Dallas Cowboys, Chicago Bears and the New Orleans Saints in consecutive years before landing in Carolina in 2023.

After taking over as the Panthers’ starter and leading the team to its only win in Week 3, Jordan wrote that she “couldn’t be more proud” of her husband.

“The last fourteen years have been filled with so many emotions,” she wrote. “The ONE thing that was constant was God’s faithfulness and His goodness…and that doesn’t always mean through victory. Often it meant heartbreak.. It meant struggle.. It meant growth! I wouldn’t trade the hard times for anything because it has shaped us.”
