Bryce Young has always been pretty buttoned up in press conferences, but today he's cracking jokes and having fun.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) July 26, 2023
This is a side of him people might not be used to, because he is so polished.
Young calls it "a huge blessing" to be named starter.

Burns said he never considered not coming to camp (in the context of contract negotiations).
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) July 26, 2023
"This is bigger than that," he said of the defense they're building.
Brian Burns up next. Says it was "a little annoying" to miss OTA time after ankle surgery. But he's excited to be back to practice.

Frank Reich on rookie WR Jonathan Mingo and his role here: "He's gonna have to earn it. Looks good so far."
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) July 26, 2023
Says he's looking forward to getting pads on to see how he performs. He likes how he's stayed level-headed early.
Reich calls Kamu Grugier-Hill's interception "phenomenal."
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) July 26, 2023
He's a fast linebacker, who will be a factor on special teams, but has shown that he can do multiple things.
Regarding guys like Donte Jackson and Jaycee Horn, Reich says "there are guys that are full go, but we're going to monitor them."
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) July 26, 2023
Reich acknowledges the obvious, that Bryce Young is in fact the starter.

Frank Reich on QB Bryce Young after his first day of practice at training camp: "Good carryover from OTAs, mentally and physically"
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) July 26, 2023
Says everyone on offense showed "good mental carryover," few mental mistakes.
Reich says there were a few instances of Bryce Young getting rid of the ball quickly, which shows the ability to improves, which is needed.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) July 26, 2023
"He's a grown man."
Frank Reich welcomes reporters back to Spartanburg.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) July 26, 2023
Says it was "cool" to walk down the hill and reminisce about his 1995 appearance here.

Jaycee Horn moves to side field after individual work. He’s cleared to go, but they traditionally manage reps for guys coming off injuries.

Kamu Grugier-Hill comes up with the first INT of Panthers training camp in a team period.

As if there was any doubt, Bryce Young taking the first snap in team period.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) July 26, 2023
I think when they traded two 1s, two 2s, and DJ Moore for him that this was kind of the plan.
As expected, Brian Burns is here and working.

Bryce Young’s taking the first first-team reps with the O-line in individual drills at training camp. No surprise there.

You’ll see more Guardian Caps this his year. Now required for every camp and preseason practice and in the regular season for practices with contact.
