Fantasy Football Player Notes

Bryce Young's second NFL season was a roller-coaster ride, but it ended on a high note. Benched after two poor games to start the season, Young returned as Carolina's starting QB in Week 7 and gradually showed improvement. Over his final three starts of the season, he completed 64.8% of his passes for 612 yards, with seven TDs, zero INTs, and a QB rating of 111.6. Young also has five rushing touchdowns in his final six games. Panthers head coach Dave Canales has a good track record with young quarterbacks, and his continued work with Young could pay off in 2025. Pass-catching weaponry has been an issue for Young, but the Panthers spent the eighth overall pick of the NFL Draft on highly regarded WR Tetairoa McMillan.
