Bryce Young on what went wrong in his three series vs. the Jets: "Lack of execution, starting with myself."
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Panthers QB Bryce Young here. He says hits are "part of the job," not something he thinks of or lets affect his decision-making.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Frank Reich says the Panthers will take it game-by-game with how much Bryce Young plays in the remainder of the preseason.

Non-committal on how much he or anyone will play, but tells his players to all be ready to play.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Reich: "We were very generic."

Didn't game-plan at all, didn't want to show too much.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

Frank Reich said that first hit on Bryce Young was "pretty big."

Had to ask him on the sideline, "Well, that was a pretty good welcome to the NFL hit, how do you feel?" and he said he was fine.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Frank Reich says the Panthers "didn't pass" their tests today, but they were good to learn from.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Frank Reich says it was "a good week that ended up on a bad note."

Obviously this wasn't to the level of the joint practice.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

It wasn't a dramatic debut for Bryce Young, as protection issues early plagued the Panthers in 27-0 loss to the Jets. https://t.co/3tE5QQHDi4

Game ends with a Matt Corral hurl to the end zone, intercepted by Jimmy Moreland.

Jets beat the Panthers, 27-0, in the preseason.

At the New York Giants on Friday.

Cam Erving, right knee and ankle, return questionable.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

WR Derek Wright getting looked at by athletic training staff.

Leads the team with three receptions for 35 yards.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

Matt Corral has made a few throws today. Nice one to Shi Smith there.

After his abbreviated 2022 preseason, he needed the live snaps in a game.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

Jets score again. We're in the fourth quarter now.

The Jets are hideously deep on the defensive front. That's first-rounder Will McDonald getting to Corral on fourth down.

There will be overreactions to the Panthers' OL play after this, but the Jets are as good up front as anyone they'll see.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

Shi Smith is being helped off the field.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Sam saw that all the way through 🙌 pic.twitter.com/XMgmUnDSPn
— Carolina Panthers (@Panthers) August 12, 2023

Sam Franklin INT. He was right in front of Tim Boyle's pass.

Sam's an energy guy, and he bolted down the field for a big celebration... or "celly," as the kids call it

Sam Franklin interception.

He's more than just a special teamer, though he's very good at that part of the game.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

Sack-fumble for Corral in the third quarter. Jets defender got around RT Michael Jordan.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

Panthers earn a first down immediately after halftime. Team's second of the game. Short pass from Matt Corral to Spencer Brown went 6 yards.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Bryce Young may be done playing on the field, but he stood right outside the Panthers’ tunnel making sure he had two hands out for every teammate as they went in to the locker room at halftime.

He was the last player to go in.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

There it is, Zach Wilson finds Malik Taylor in the end zone. Halftime is soon.

NYJ 13, CAR 0 | 0:08 2Q
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Jets piece together another FG drive, while the Panthers haven't earned a first down since the first series.

8 plays, 48 yards, 4:15 off the clock. 45-yarder for NY kicker Greg Zuerlein.

NYJ 6, CAR 0 | 4:09 2Q
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Matt Corral is sacked on third down. No completions for him on his first drive.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

The Panthers also slotted three guys in at right guard across Bryce Young's three drives – Cade Mays, Justin McCray, and Michael Jordan were all in there at some point.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Matt Corral taking the field.

That's a wrap for Bryce Young.

4-6, 21 yards, no points, one sack, three QB hits.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

Straight to it. @Ayye_Barno pic.twitter.com/4LWeI31FH6
— Carolina Panthers (@Panthers) August 12, 2023

Nash Jensen's not playing today, and his stock's going up in the process. The undrafted rookie from North Dakota State has had a good camp, but is dealing with a back issue.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

Bryce Young's first sack comes on third down, ends his third drive in a three-and-out.

Looks like Michael Jordan (the third right guard we've seen slotted in that spot today) was just beat by Quinton Jefferson.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Bryce Young is back out there for more – a third series.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Sack, Amaré Barno. Really dominant.

Can't lie, I personally didn't see a ton of that in camp. But that was impressive.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Three-and-out for Bryce Young's second series.

He handed off to Chuba Hubbard for 2 yards, completed a short pass to Hubbard for 3, and aimed at Laviska Shenault on third down – but it looked like some sort of miscommunication there.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Bryce is going to get another series, taking over at the 2.

Not ideal.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

They've gone to the second-string secondary and linebackers for the second defensive series.

The second line is out there too, even though half of them (Gross-Matos and Kobe Jones) started.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

Bryce Young isn't able to get the ball to DJ Chark on third down, flies over Chark's hands.

Young is rocked again – this time by Jermaine Johnson.

Panthers punt on Young's first drive.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Bryce takes a hit after his first completion to Thielen. Lofts one over Chark on a third down. Not a dramatic first drive.

Panthers punt.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

Bryce Young's first throw as a Panther is a completion to Adam Thielen for 8 yards. Solomon Thomas got a pretty big hit on him after the play.

It was a first down.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Jets drove all the way down vs. a chunk of the Panthers' starting defense, set up for a 47-yard FG attempt – 13 plays and over 6 minutes later... It's good.

NYJ 3, CAR 0 | 8:25 1Q
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Jets with a long field goal drive to open the game.

It's Bryce Time.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

Donte Jackson a nice PBU in the end zone, wiped out by a Jets penalty. Still a good play.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

Panthers thought they got the ball after Xavier Woods recovered a fumble, bringing out Bryce Young and the starting offense for a BRIEF moment.

But that fumble was overturned, so no Bryce Young... yet.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Fumble overturned on review. Down by contact.

Now Bryce Young will get cheered twice as he runs onto the field.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

Panthers have the starting defense out on the first series of this preseason game vs. the Jets – no Burns or Haynes, as previously announced.

But Frankie Luvu is out there after missing Wednesday's joint practice vs. the Jets, and he just assisted Derrick Brown with a tackle.

Jets call heads, it's tails. Panthers defer.

Official game-time temperature, 93 degrees, with 50 percent humidity.

Hydrate well, Charlotte.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) August 12, 2023

Hearing 93 degrees is the temperature at kickoff for today's Panthers-Jets preseason game.

Phew.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

There they go 😤 pic.twitter.com/mqYYdwZphu
— Carolina Panthers (@Panthers) August 12, 2023

No Aaron Rodgers, Garrett Wilson, or Sauce Gardner in today's preseason game, either
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

Players in place of starters who aren't playing in Panthers vs. Jets:

- OLB Kobe Jones in for Marquis Haynes
- OLB Yetur Gross-Matos in for Brian Burns
- RB Chuba Hubbard in for Miles Sanders

QB1 is in the building...

Welcome to a gameday at Bank of America Stadium, Bryce Young https://t.co/H9jLAH3xKG
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) August 12, 2023

With no Burns and Houston today, they're expected to start Kobe Jones and Yetur Gross-Matos at OLB.

Cade Mays expected to start at RG, after Justin McCray was there the other day in joint practices. Mays has gotten most of the work in the Austin Corbett spot.
