Bryce Young is officially a Carolina Panther, and his brothers in Tuscaloosa (Ala.) are here for it.
Young became the Crimson Tide’s first No. 1 overall pick in the NFL Draft since Joe Namath in 1965, and Nick Saban’s first No. 1 selection in the common draft era. Young’s former teammates for the Tide gave an emphatic reaction watching him be the first player selected Thursday night to open the NFL Draft. He was the first quarterback in Tide history to win the Heisman Trophy.
Roll Tide Forever!! ❤️❤️
