Bryce Young had a rough go of it in Week 7, tossing just one touchdown against two interceptions as his Carolina Panthers fell to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

A Performance to Forget

Young completed only 14 of his 27 pass attempts, managing a meager 163 yards through the air. You just hate to see a quarterback struggle like that, especially when it comes with a 1-to-2 touchdown-to-interception ratio. He clearly could not find much success against that tough Tampa Bay defense, and the Panthers’ offense stalled out.

What This Means Right Now

This was a significant dip for Young, marking the first time all season he was held under 200 passing yards. That is a stat that screams trouble, and it shows the kind of pressure he is under. He will need to bounce back next week when the Panthers face the Green Bay Packers. Right now, if you are looking at fantasy, he is squarely in the No. 2 quarterback tier.
