• Panthers' Bryce Young: Leads key division win

  9H ago • By RotoWire

  Young completed 21 of 32 passes for 191 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions while adding four rushes for 20 yards in the Panthers' 23-20 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday. Young turned in a relatively efficient effort in the grindy division win, and most important, he avoided any turnovers for the third straight game. The 2023 first overall pick connected with Tetairoa McMillan (22 yards) and Ja'Tavion Sanders (six yards) for his pair of scoring passes late in the second and third quarters, respectively, and he led a late seven-play, 43-yard drive that culminated in what would turn out to be the game-winning field goal. Young and the Panthers draw a tough Week 17 assignment, however, as the Seahawks drop in for a visit next Sunday afternoon.

• Panthers' Bryce Young: Sleeper QBs

  2D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  We never know which version of Young is going to show up on a weekly basis, especially if Carolina's running game is having a dominant performance. That could happen in Week 16 against Tampa Bay, which bodes well for Rico Dowdle and Chuba Hubbard. That said, the Buccaneers pass defense has been awful for most of the season, and Young is worth taking a chance on as a low-end starter in deeper leagues. Tampa Bay is No. 5 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks, and six quarterbacks in a row have scored at least 21.2 Fantasy points against the Buccaneers. Young has scored more than 18 Fantasy points just twice in his past seven games, but he has the chance to help managers in deeper leagues given this matchup in Week 16.

• Panthers' Bryce Young: Modest output in loss

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Young completed 15 of 24 passes for 163 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Saints. He added seven rushes for 49 yards. As has been the case for much of the season, the Panthers were content to rely on the ground game to power their offense. That limited Young to 25 or fewer pass attempts for the sixth time in his last eight matchups, though he did a solid job pushing the ball down the field when called upon. Young's performance was highlighted by a 32-yard touchdown pass that hit Jalen Coker in stride down the right sideline, and he also tacked on three additional completions of at least 20 yards. Despite the positives, Young has been held below 200 passing yards in all but three games this season, and he now has one or fewer touchdowns in four of the team's last six games.

• Panthers' Bryce Young: Tosses three TDs in upset win

  21D ago • By RotoWire

  Young completed 15 of 20 passes for 206 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 31-28 win over the Rams. He added 23 rushing yards on five carries. The third-year quarterback came up with a heroic effort in the upset win, with two of his TD passes -- a 33-yard strike to Jalen Coker in the third quarter and a 43-yard connection with Tetairoa McMillan in the fourth for the go-ahead score -- coming on fourth-down plays. It's the third three-touchdown performance of the season for Young, and second in the last three games as he finally begins to show signs of emerging as a franchise player for the Panthers. Young will get a well-deserved rest during Carolina's bye next week before facing the Saints in Week 15.
