Bryce Young was a college football star playing for Alabama from 2020 to 2022, with that program he won a CFP National Championship in 2020 and a Heisman Trophy in 2021.

It was highly probable that Young would be drafted during the 2023 NFL Draft and things went exactly like that, he was the first overall pick drafted by the Carolina Panthers.

But the Panthers have been in turmoil for the past couple of seasons and some critics think Bryce Young might not be the quarterback they need.
