Kurt Warner Weighs In: Is Bryce Young Living Up to His Potential?
NFL Hall of Famer Kurt Warner has shared his thoughts on Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young, assessing the No. 1 overall pick’s performance in his rookie season. With the Panthers enduring a difficult year, Warner offered a measured take on Young’s development.
Speaking on NFL Network, Warner acknowledged the challenges the young quarterback has faced. “It’s tough for any rookie QB, especially when you’re in a situation where things aren’t clicking as a team,” Warner said. “Bryce has shown flashes of what made him the first pick—his decision-making, his accuracy—but consistency has been an issue, and that’s not all on him.”
Warner highlighted the importance of surrounding talent and coaching in shaping a quarterback’s success. “We’ve seen with other young QBs like C.J. Stroud—when the system works, they can thrive. Bryce has the potential, but the pieces around him need to come together,” he added.
Young has struggled to meet the sky-high expectations placed on him, with critics pointing to his lack of production and the team’s 1-11 record. However, Warner urged patience. “He’s got all the tools, but development takes time. It’s about how he learns and grows from this tough start that will define his career.”
As the season winds down, fans and analysts alike are eager to see whether Bryce Young can overcome early struggles and live up to his billing as the franchise savior.
