After two mild outings to begin his preseason, Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young spiced up Bank of America Stadium on Friday night to close out the summer. In establishing a string of exhibition bests, he completed seven of his 12 throws for 73 yards and a touchdown while running for 21 more yards on three rushing attempts.
Here are the highlights from the rookie’s sparkling start:
