The Carolina Panthers have confirmed that Bryce Young will start as quarterback for their upcoming game against the New York Giants in Munich. This decision marks Young’s third consecutive start, with head coach Dave Canales highlighting the growth he’s seen in Young’s recent performances. Canales praised Young’s ability to “finish” plays and games, referencing his game-winning drive against the New Orleans Saints in a close 23-22 victory. Canales has prioritized the young quarterback’s weekly improvement and hopes that this momentum will continue.

General Manager Dan Morgan showed confidence in Young by dismissing trade inquiries about the rookie ahead of the trade deadline. Although he has refrained from committing to Young as the long-term solution for the franchise, Morgan expressed satisfaction with Young’s development and willingness to evaluate his progress each week. Morgan intends to make any future decisions regarding Young’s role after the season, reflecting a careful and patient approach to managing the rookie’s career.

Young himself is grateful for the opportunity to continue starting and remains focused on contributing to the team’s success. While he understands that each game is an evaluation of his performance, Young chooses to concentrate on his immediate responsibilities rather than the long-term implications. He believes in trusting the process and letting his on-field efforts speak for themselves, hoping to help the team win in the meantime.

In addition to Young’s starting role, the Panthers are preparing to activate rookie running back Jonathon Brooks, who has been recovering from ACL surgery. Coach Canales indicated that Brooks, along with linebacker D.J. Wonnum, who is also returning from an injury, could soon join the active roster. Although it’s uncertain if Brooks will play against the Giants, these moves highlight the team’s focus on integrating young players and building a stronger lineup as they look ahead.

Currently, Young has a 3-17 record as a starter, including a 1-3 start this season. He initially lost his starting spot to veteran quarterback Andy Dalton after an 0-2 start, as Canales believed Dalton’s experience gave the team a better chance of winning. Dalton, however, injured his thumb in a car accident, which led to Young reclaiming the starting position. Canales now values Young’s growing chemistry with his receivers, especially the rookies, and is willing to give him more opportunities to develop with the team. This decision signals a commitment to building team rapport and seeing what Young can achieve with more support from his teammates.
