Alabama in the Pros

Bryce Young now has back-to-back wins for first time in his career with Panthers

Kirby Lee - USA Today Sports

Carolina is hanging on to Bryce Young in the National Football League.

The former Alabama quarterback learned from his moment of being benched and is now playing with new confidence.

Young has now led the Panthers to back-to-back victories for the first time in his career.

After earning a win last week against a division rival in the New Orleans Saints, Young guided Carolina to a victory on Sunday over the New York Giants. He completed 15 of 25 passes for 126 yards with a touchdown and no turnovers. Young helped Carolina to a 20-17 win in overtime, posting two straight games of completing at least 60 percent of his passes. The game is slowing down for him and the California native is having fun again. He smiled in another postgame interview as he’s starting to have success.

What did we learn about Alabama after its impressive victory over LSU?

If Young can have the Panthers win-out the rest of its schedule, the program will have a lot to be excited for next season.
