Yahoo Fantasy Football on Bryce Young
From the article
Carolina exercised the 2027 fifth-year option on the former No. 1 overall draft pick's rookie deal for $25.9 million but have not signed him to a long-term extension and don't plan to before the season. Young had just 54 yards in a loss to the Seahawks late in the season.
STACKED’s take
Young's 2027 option is a hedge; he must prove himself over two seasons.
Young enters his fourth season with the Panthers and remains unresolved as a long-term starter; the source notes the Panthers exercised his 2027 fifth-year option for $25.9 million but have not signed him to a long-term extension and don't plan to before the season. Young had a 147.1 passer rating in a regular-season win over the Rams (his best of last season) but failed to pass for more than 200 yards in 12 of 16 starts and had just 54 yards in a loss to the Seahawks. The Panthers were run-heavy (fifth-to-last in pass rate over expectation), a product of having a quarterback who has yet to truly break out. The source states this is a very important season for Young to solidify himself as the Panthers' quarterback of the foreseeable future.
