CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Bryce Young took the snap like he would at any practice, but then he headed for the edge on a designed quarterback sweep, something he wouldn't normally do. With a blocker ahead, the No. 1 pick of the 2023 draft, now running the Carolina Panthers' scout team, kicked into high gear and raced 20 yards for a first down.
"I asked him how fast he was going,'' tight end Jordan Matthews said. "He was like, '18 or 19 [mph].' I'm like, 'I bet you hit 20!' He was rolling.''
Outside linebacker Jadeveon Clowney was so impressed he called it "that run.''
