Chance for Tago to Own the Moment as Panthers Face Top Four Bound Warriors • The Western Weekender
Carolina is evaluating Kenny Pickett and Haynes King in preseason while keeping Bryce Young’s extension talks private, with one team official calling his ceiling unknown.
- The Carolina Panthers will keep quarterback Bryce Young out of Thursday's Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio, with head coach Dave Canales confirming most starters will sit out the preseason opener against the Arizona Cardinals.
- Sitting Young serves as workload management rather than a demotion, as the team aims to preserve his health for the regular season after he threw for 3,011 yards and 23 touchdowns last year.
- Veteran backup Kenny Pickett will start the game, with undrafted rookie Haynes King expected to receive significant playing time, allowing the team to evaluate roster depth without exposing Young to injury risk.
- Young enters the final season of his rookie contract, while Panthers executive vice president of football operations Brandt Tilis stated extension discussions remain "within" the organization and the team holds a $25.9 million fifth-year option for 2027.
- Despite his productive performance last year, Tilis described Young as an "ascending player" with a ceiling that remains "unknown," leaving the upcoming season to determine whether he warrants a major long-term investment.
