Frank Reich gives glowing review of Bryce Young after first day of OTAs
On Monday, the Carolina Panthers kicked off the first of 10 OTA practices and that means that No. 1 overall pick Bryce Young took center stage.
Following the practice, Panthers head coach Frank Reich was asked about the Alabama football legend. Coach Reich had some very nice things to say about Young and his command of the Carolina offense. Reich said Young’s command was “10 out of 10,” which is what you like to see from your franchise quarterback.
“Just complete command, control, poise,” Reich said after Day 1. “You could tell the way he was seeing it, the way he was working through progressions, accuracy in the throw, ball placement of the throw, it was all very good.”
Young split the first-team reps with veteran Andy Dalton on Monday which provided Young with a unique learning experience.
“It’s really good for Bryce to kind of see Andy handle things the way he’s handled things,” Reich said. “And, obviously, Bryce has picked it up extremely fast. But it feels like we’ve got a good plan and we’re doing the right thing.”
Young is obviously now the face of the Carlina franchise and the fact that he is already making a great impression on his new head coach has to have Panther fans excited!
