CHARLOTTE – The Panthers have promoted cornerback Lou Youngicon-article-link.gif from the practice squad and released tight end Scott Simonsonicon-article-link.gif. Young, who has never played in a regular season game, was signed to the practice squad on Wednesday.

Head coach Ron Rivera indicated on Friday that the team would likely elevate Young to provide depth at corner. Carolina will be without starters James Bradberryicon-article-link.gif (foot) and Robert McClainicon-article-link.gif (hamstring) on Sunday against the Saints.

Simonson, the team’s third tight end behind Greg Olsenicon-article-link.gif and Ed Dicksonicon-article-link.gif, has played in all five games but did not record a catch.

The Panthers brought back wide receiver Damiere Byrd to fill the open spot on the practice squad. Byrd was waived earlier this week to make room for defensive end Wes Hortonicon-article-link.gif on the active roster.

We need bradberry to nut up.

You don't "nut up" with Turf Toe. It can be debilitating, especially if your job is to run fast and make cuts. The only way for it to heal is to limit activity as much as possible.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
