Bryce Young delivers a dart for first career NFL touchdown

After being selected with the first overall pick of the 2023 NFL Draft by the Carolina Panthers, Bryce Young is quickly making his presence felt in the NFL ranks. After an early interception, Young responded well as he delivered his first career NFL touchdown.

Young found tight end Hayden Hurst for his first passing score before Hurst hilariously launched the ball into the stands. The score tied the game in a crucial NFC South rivalry game. Outside of the early pick, Young has looked incredibly poised in the pocket and has delivered some strikes downfield.

If Carolina has any hopes of making a playoff push they are going to need the Alabama phenom to continue playing at a high level for the remainder of the season.
