Bryce Young's Size Isn't an Issue for Texans Ahead of NFL Draft, DeMeco Ryans Says

One of the biggest knocks against former Alabama quarterback Bryce Young has been his size, but that isn't a problem for DeMeco Ryans and the Houston Texans, who hold the No. 2 overall pick in the upcoming NFL draft, according to Gallery Sports' John McClain.

Young is one of the highest-rated quarterback prospects in this year's draft class following a phenomenal career in college in which he won the Heisman Trophy in 2021 and went 23-4 as a starter.

"I know there's a lot of talk about his size, but the guy's done it at the highest level of college football, and size doesn't seem to be a problem," Ryans said Monday at the Annual League Meeting.
