Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young is getting his money's worth.
That statement also applies on the field, where the 23-year-old passer just delivered one of the most impressive performances of his NFL career. Young, on Sunday to the Kansas City Chiefs, throwing for a season-high 263 yards and a touchdown and bringing the reigning Super Bowl champions to the unexpected precipice.
This statement also applies off the field, where he spoke to his teammates in a “rare moment” after the defeat. . .

After a nightmarish two-game start to his second pro season, Young was it at the beginning of the third week. But a Veteran quarterback Andy Dalton gave Young a second chance – leading the Panthers to a 2-2 mark last month.
In his four starts with the team, Young has completed 61.0 percent of his throws for 784 yards, five touchdowns and three interceptions.
