The Carolina Panthers have a new quarterback, and he is already making an impression. On Wednesday, rookie Bryce Young had his first practice with the team and it was clear that he had already made an impact. According to head coach Matt Rhule, Young showed “complete command” of the offense and was able to make all the throws.
Young was the first quarterback taken in the 2021 NFL Draft, and the Panthers were thrilled to get him. He had a stellar career at the University of Alabama, where he was a Heisman Trophy finalist and led the Crimson Tide to a national championship. He has all the tools to be a successful NFL quarterback, and it looks like he’s already off to a great start.
Rhule was impressed by Young’s performance in practice, noting that he was able to make all the throws and had a good command of the offense. He also praised Young’s poise and confidence, which is something that can’t be taught. Young’s teammates were also impressed with his performance, with veteran wide receiver D.J. Moore saying that Young “looked great” and had a good command of the offense.
It’s clear that Young has all the tools to be a successful NFL quarterback, and it looks like he’s already off to a great start. He has the confidence and poise of a veteran, and he has already shown that he can make all the throws. If he can continue to impress in practice and in preseason games, then the Panthers could have a special player on their hands.
