He checks in at 5-10 1/8″ and 204 pounds according to a tweet from ESPN’s Field Yates. Young told reporters at Indianapolis he was in the 200-pound range, and he was correct.
Alabama QB Bryce Young measurements at the Combine:
Height: 5-10 and 1/8th of an inch
Weight: 204 pounds
Hands: 9 and 3/4ths of an inch— Field Yates (@FieldYates) March 4, 2023
His hands are also 9 3/4″ — measuring close to 10″ hands, which a lot of NFL Draft pundits equate to ideal hand size. The 2021 Heisman Trophy winner is not concerned about his size. Young is confident in his ability to lead an NFL team. He took Alabama to a Southeastern Conference Championship in 2021 and led it to an Allstate Sugar Bowl victory last season. The Chicago Bears have the No. 1 overall pick, but several teams are lining up to make a deal if the Bears want to trade the pick.
Young’s true size is out, but it should not deter teams away from him.
