The Carolina Panthers have announced that Bryce Young, the 2023 No. 1 overall pick, will start in Week 8 against the Denver Broncos due to Andy Dalton’s thumb injury in a car accident.

Young, who was benched early in the season for his lack of confidence as a passer, now has a chance to redeem himself and potentially secure his future with the team.

This game could be make or break for Young, as he needs to show significant improvement in key areas to prove himself as the long-term answer for the Panthers.

If he fails to deliver, it may be the end of the road for the once highly-touted quarterback in Carolina.
