Panthers QB Bryce Young says he's 'comfortable' in new offense even if he doesn't play in preseason

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Panthers quarterback Bryce Young isn’t concerned if he doesn’t take a snap in the preseason.

The No. 1 overall pick in 2023 is coming off a rookie season in which he went 2-14 as a starter and ranked near the bottom of the league in most passing categories. And he enters Year 2 having been forced to learn a different offense under new coach Dave Canales.

Despite all that, Canales elected to hold Young out of Carolina’s first two preseason games.

“They manage the team and they know what they’re doing,” Young said of the coaching staff. “For me and for us (as a team), we trust whatever they want to do. Whatever their calls are, we are comfortable with that.”
