“I’m Leaving”: Bryce Young Expresses His Desire to Leave the Carolina Panthers Today Due to…
It was a quiet morning in Charlotte, the kind that felt like any other during the NFL offseason. Reporters milled around outside Bank of America Stadium, expecting routine press conferences and light updates. But when Bryce Young stepped up to the podium with somber eyes and a folded sheet of paper in his hand, the energy in the room shifted.
“I’m leaving,” he began, pausing to let the weight of the words settle. The cameras clicked, reporters froze, and social media feeds lit up like wildfire.
The 2023 first-overall pick had endured two grueling seasons with the Panthers—marked by coaching changes, poor protection, and mounting pressure. What was once a promising career in the making had become a weekly trial of survival.
“This isn’t about giving up,” Bryce continued. “It’s about recognizing when something is no longer helping you grow. I’ve given everything I could to this franchise, but I can’t keep pouring into a system that doesn’t pour back.”
Sources close to Young revealed deeper issues behind the scenes: disagreements with the front office, lack of offensive support, and a growing frustration with the direction of the team. Despite his quiet leadership and professionalism, Bryce had reached his limit.
“I still love the game,” he said. “But I have to put myself in a position where I can thrive, not just survive.”
The press conference ended with no mention of a trade destination—only a clear message. Bryce Young wasn’t walking away from football.
