The anticipation for No. 1 overall pick, Bryce Young, to make his NFL debut is sky-high among the folks in Charlotte and Tuscaloosa. The former Heisman Trophy winner and Alabama great has already cracked the NFL’s list for the top ten jersey sales, and after getting a look at them this weekend, they will continue to soar.
Young hasn’t even been with the Panthers organization for a month, yet he is turning heads and quickly winning over the coaching staff. No matter who you are, if you are the top pick in the NFL draft, expectations will be lofty, to say the least, but that’s never been an issue for No. 9.
He was known for coming in on Mondays after games with plans for the next opponent after having done his own independent studies over the weekend. Reports out of Carolina indicate that hasn’t changed as Young is already helping other rookies understand the playbook and has a complete command of the offense.
Over the weekend, a lot of the first and second-round picks from the past NFL draft got together for picture day which was the first chance we got as fans to see players in full uniforms. Boy oh boy, does Bryce look ready to take the NFL by storm.
