After an offseason of intrigue and optimism, the Carolina Panthers get their season underway with a trip to face the Jacksonville Jaguars. It is a critical third year for quarterback Bryce Young, as he begins his third campaign with a battle against another former No. 1 overall pick in Trevor Lawrence.
The Panthers are once again competing in arguably the weakest division across the league, so there’s an opportunity for the team to return to the playoffs for the first time in the David Tepper era. Carolina must start the season well and keep confidence high.
