Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young just keeps stacking days this summer. And on Thursday, he stacked what may have been his best one yet.
The second-year passer shined throughout this morning’s joint practice with the visiting New York Jets. Heck, you couldn’t even tell that he was coming off a rough Wednesday, where he threw multiple interceptions to his own defense during a bumpy session.
Head coach Dave Canales, who said he actually thought Young was sharp yesterday, told reporters what he thought of the 23-year-old’s performance against another defense.
“He came out, he was sharp, he was getting us in and out of the huddle, he’s accurate,” Canales stated. “He just shows . . . that’s Bryce. He loves it. When he gets challenged and the stakes rise, that’s him. He stays the same and continues to be accurate. I love the way he handled today.”

Young would also be asked about his day.
“I liked how competitive we were,” Young replied. “I like how we responded. I think we started strong. I thought that we did a really good job as a unit of . . . I think there was a little lull for us as a unit, and us responding to that. ‘Cause there’s gonna be lulls throughout the season. We definitely had some points of emphasis to make sure we fight through that.”
