Bryce Young 's preseason debut was worth the wait.
For the first time this summer, the Carolina Panthers rolled out some of their starters to get them a bit of exhibition action. Among those who took the field at Highmark Stadium on Saturday included Young, who absolutely shined on the game's opening possession.

The second-year quarterback completed six of his eight passing attempts for 70 yards and a touchdown. Young's score found the hands of tight end Jordan Matthews for an 8-yard connection.
Carolina's 85-yard drive spanned a total of 12 plays, a trek that featured a few other impressive displays from Young. One of those saw the second-year passer escape a pressure-filled pocket to find wide receiver Diontae Johnson on a nifty 17-yard completion.
Young also connected with wideouts Adam Thielen (21 yards) and Jonathan Mingo (3 yards) as well as rookie tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders (13 yards).
