From the article

Young has improved from where he was a couple of years ago, but he still isn't playing nearly well enough to get a contract extension. The Panthers punted that decision for at least a year by picking up the 5th-year option, but it's possible they may not even make that decision for another two years and utilize the franchise tag if they must.
