Panthers great Luke Kuechly gives his opinion on Bryce Young’s struggles

Luke Kuechly isn’t ready to close the book on Panthers QB Bryce Young just yet.

Many Carolina Panthers fans seem to be jumping off the Bryce Young bandwagon after a second straight dud to start to the 2024 campaign. But a franchise legend won’t be joining them, at least not yet.

Former Panthers linebacker Luke Kuechly talked about the team’s 26-3 loss on this morning’s episode of Up & Adams. The defeat was headlined by another disappointing performance from Young, who threw for a career-low 84 yards as well as his third head-scratching interception of the last two weeks.

Host Kay Adams asked Kuechly what he thinks is going wrong with the 23-year-old passer. And if you’re looking for a little ray of hope right now, the future Pro Football Hall of Famer may have provided it . . .

Young’s early-season struggles are a bit more concerning when you consider how well his offensive line has played—as was pressured on four his 29 dropbacks on Sunday, the lowest amount for any starting quarterback in Week 2. The line, per Pro Football Focus, was responsible for just two of those pressures.

Through two games, Young has completed just over 55 percent of his passes for 245 yards, no touchdowns and the three picks.
