Ian Rapoport: Bryce Young could re-take starting QB spot with a good performance

Bryce is not overtaking anything but a waiver or trade spot. This reminds me of that one year where Jake magically had a thumb injury which necessitated his benching. Andy gets in a car wreck (thankful he and his family are ok - hoping the other party is ok too) and he somehow walks away with a thumb injury in his throwing hand? 

beginning of the end for both QBs in Carolina.

Worst case scenario he wins us 4 games which puts us out of QB range in the draft and we end up with him as the starter next season and we repeat this nonsense all again.

 

Sometimes you have to think about the worst case scenario.

We wake up in it daily. But thinking he is going to come on and take this team 4-6 the rest of the way?  That's kind of unlikely. 

Worst case might be he looks really good for a half, gets injured, and people have all that time to talk themselves back into him.

It’s unserious to think that 1 amazing performance would make up for his overall body of work. He’s guaranteed horrible. He’s going to play terrible and his teammates won’t play hard for him. 

I agree, it’s wild that some think bc he has one good game, it automatically assumes he’s good, I don’t know how sports media has forgotten 16 games last year and two this year. It’s been abysmal. Yes Andy was bad against the bears and commanders, but he was ten times better than Bruce against LV, ATL and cincy.

I'd love to see it.

But for him to not only look "better" (nowhere to go but up from one of the worst ever) but like a real bonafide franchise QB and take back the starting job would be one of the more improbable turnarounds in sports history. We'll see.

It is impossible because the Panthers ruined him.

    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
