    Panthers' Bryce Young: Tosses two TDs to Tet

    Bryce Young completed 29 of 41 passes for 329 yards and two touchdowns while rushing three times for three yards in Sunday's 32-26 win over the Lions.Young found Tetairoa McMillan for touchdown passes of 32 and 10 yards as they connected 14 times for 192 yards in the absence of Jalen Coker (quadriceps) and Xavier Legette (knee), the latter of whom is on IR. Young cooled off in the fourth quarter after leading the Carolina Panthers to a 29-19 advantage through three, but Carolina held on for its second win of the season. The 2023 first overall pick is off to a stellar start in 2026, with 1,268 passing yards and a 9:2 TD:INT through four games. Young and the Panthers will be on bye in Week 5 before facing Philadelphia in Week 6.

    Panthers' Bryce Young: Opens week with full practice

    Bryce Young (knee) was listed as a full participant on Wednesday's practice estimate, Darin Gantt of the Carolina Panthers' official site reports.Young played every snap in this past Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Browns, but he made a visit to the blue medical tent on the Carolina sideline at one point during the contest to get his knee checked out. The knee issue evidently isn't a concern heading into Week 4, when Young and the Panthers will be preparing to face off against a Lions defense that has surrendered an NFL-high 299.3 passing yards per game through three contests. Young will profile as a strong fantasy option this week, even while the status of one of his top pass-catching weapons in wideout Jalen Coker (quadriceps) remains somewhat murky.

    Panthers' Bryce Young: Big passing yardage total in loss

    Bryce Young completed 26 of 48 passes for 291 yards with one touchdown and one interception in the Carolina Panthers' 21-18 loss to the Browns on Sunday.Young's passing yardage total was impressive in defeat, especially considering he lost No. 2 receiver Jalen Coker to a quadriceps injury during the contest. However, the fourth-year signal-caller also struggled at times against an aggressive Browns defense that sacked him three times and recorded a game-sealing interception at Cleveland's 46-yard line. After the game, per Joe Person of The Athletic, head coach Dave Canales told reporters that a lower-body injury appeared to impact Young on some throws, which may help explain some of the struggles he endured. Young still has an impressive 7:2 TD:INT and has thrown for 939 yards over his first three games heading into a Week 4 home clash with the Lions next Sunday night.

    Panthers' Bryce Young: Crisp multi-TD performance in win

    Bryce Young completed 23 of 36 passes for 287 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions and added one carry for six yards in the Carolina Panthers' 34-3 win over the Falcons on Sunday.The Panthers weren't particularly threatened by the Falcons at any point Sunday, so Young's robust passing yardage total was particularly noteworthy in that context. The 2023 first overall pick posted a second straight three-touchdown performance to open the season, connecting with Chuba Hubbard (three yards) and Darren Waller (seven, 12 yards) for his trio of scoring tosses. Young hooked up with eight different targets overall on the afternoon, and with 648 passing yards and six touchdowns versus one interception through the first pair of contests, he's clicking on all cylinders heading into a Week 3 road matchup against the Browns.

    Panthers' Bryce Young: Produces four TDs in Week 1 loss

    Bryce Young completed 23 of 37 passes for 361 yards and three touchdowns with one interception in Sunday's 59-37 loss to the Bears. He added 10 yards and a TD on two carries.In the highest-scoring Week 1 contest in NFL history, Young did his part to try and keep Carolina in the game, but his defense couldn't slow down Chicago's ground game. The fourth-year QB tossed one score to Chuba Hubbard in the first quarter and two to Jalen Coker in the second and fourth while also running one in himself from seven yards out in the second quarter. Young accounted for a career-high 25 touchdowns (23 through the air, two on the ground) in the 2025 regular season, and he's off to a flying start in the quest to top that number this season. He'll look to stay sharp in Week 2 on the road against the Falcons.

    Panthers' Bryce Young: Working with new play caller

    Bryce Young will be working with a new play caller in 2026 with offensive coordinator Brad Idzik taking those duties from head coach Dave Canales, Mike Kaye of ESPN.com reports.Idzik is entering his third year as the Carolina Panthers' OC, and the switch in play callers has been described by Young as "aggressive, which is huge for us." The results in two preseason contests were tepid, to say the least, as Young completed eight of 11 passes for 67 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions while directing four drives. Having dynamic second-year WR Tetairoa McMillan at his disposal will help matters once the games begin to count Week 1, but the rest of the skill-position group leaves something to be desired.

    Panthers' Bryce Young: Leads scoring drive in preseason win

    Bryce Young completed five of six passes for 49 yards in Friday's 34-17 preseason win over the Jaguars.The Carolina Panthers played their starters for the first quarter while their opposition didn't, and it paid off when Young led a scoring drive on his second and final possession, capped by a one-yard TD plunge by Jonathon Brooks. That could be Young's last tune-up of the preseason, as Carolina plays one more exhibition game next Friday against Houston before turning its attention to Week 1 and the Bears.

    Panthers' Bryce Young: Little production in preseason loss

    Bryce Young completed three of five passes for 18 yards in Saturday's 29-14 preseason loss to the Bills.The fourth-year QB got the start and played into the second quarter after sitting out the Carolina Panthers' preseason opener last week in the Hall of Fame Game, but the offense couldn't get much going as all three of Young's possessions ended in punts. The 2023 first overall pick has yet to prove he can be a franchise quarterback in the NFL, or even a reliable fantasy option, but Young did take a small step forward in 2025 by setting career highs in completion rate (63.6 percent), passing yards (3,011) and passing TDs (23) over 16 regular-season games.

    Panthers' Bryce Young: Will play in preseason opener

    Head coach Dave Canales told reporters Sunday that Bryce Young and the Carolina Panthers starters will play in Saturday's preseason opener against the Bills, Kassidy Hill of the team's official site reports.Canales added that the starters will get about 10-to-20 reps in Buffalo. Young, the No. 1 overall pick of the 2023 NFL Draft, is coming off the best year of his three-year career. Across 17 regular-season games in 2025, he completed 63.6 percent of his passes for 3,011 yards, 23 touchdowns and 11 interceptions while adding 216 yards and two scores on 54 carries. The fifth-year option on Young's rookie contract was picked up for the 2027 season, and it looks like any contract negotiations between the 25-year-old quarterback and the Panthers won't take place until after the 2026 campaign.

    Panthers' Bryce Young: Won't play in HOF Game

    Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales said that Bryce Young won't play in Thursday's preseason opener versus the Cardinals, Steve Reed of the Associated Press reports.Young is entrenched as the team's starting quarterback heading into his fourth NFL season, so he'll be in street clothes for the Hall of Fame Game along with several other key contributors while the Panthers open up more playing time for players competing for roster spots. Though Young showed growth as a third-year player in 2025 and helped lead the Panthers to an NFC South title, he's expected to enter the upcoming season without a long-term contract in place, per Reed. Instead, the Panthers appear content to see how the 2026 campaign plays out for Young before engaging in extension talks.
