Decent article I came across. Shows Bradberry's point of view of his role on the team what expectations he has set for himself. I believe he's a true hard worker, and I think he'll come to shape possibly by mid-season. He's got the physical traits, it just comes down to practicing and learning your role in the defense. Read if you must.

Bradberry says he's a different person with a different attitude.

"They've put a lot of weight on my shoulders," said Bradberry, whose team completed a three-day minicamp on Thursday. "There's a lot of veteran guys looking at me to make sure I get all the plays right when I get in the game."

...

"The key thing for me is to stay in the playbook and stay with the game plan," Bradberry said. "I'm trying to come out and show that I'm a starter every day."

Seems to be a problem with the link, at least for me

So, I'm guessing, he just chose 24 because he was kinda hedging his bet (on himself that he'd play up to that kind of high level) and didn't want to see the other two sporting the number. 

I get that he's quiet and all, but it'd be nice if he let just a little bit of swag rub off on him...from somewhere. The greats are supremely confident.

He picked the number because he respects those that wore it, Champ, Revis, Norman et al.

Hes not making a statement or betting on anything, he's just paying homage.

I could care less about swag or personality, as long as he gets along with his teammates and communicates well on the field. Luke doesn't exactly have a lot of "swag", but he just makes plays game in and game out. Far too often, swag gets confused with leadership or talent.

Fug swag. Make plays dammit.

Has yet to play a down in an NFL game, but lacks swag...

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
