Panthers draft quarterback Young with first pick in NFL draft

SPORTS 28.04.2023

The Carolina Panthers drafted quarterback Bryce Young with the number one overall pick in the NFL draft on Thursday with the Houston Texans also taking a quarterback in C.J. Stroud with the second pick.

Text size:

Young, out of the University of Alabama and the 2021 Heisman Trophy winner, was widely tipped to be the first choice after the Panthers traded with the Chicago Bears for the first pick.

"As amazing as this moment is, I'm going to try to live in the moment. I can't wait to get to work tomorrow and start building off of that," Young told the NFL Network.

"I'm going to give everything to the franchise, to the organization, to the coaches that believed in me and drafted me. I'm forever indebted for that. Everything I have for preparation, not just on Sundays but throughout the entire week, I'm going to give it my all," he said.

The Texans also opted for a quarterback with the choice of Stroud out of Ohio State and then traded with the Arizona Cardinals for the third round pick and opted to bring in highly-rated outside linebacker Will Anderson Jr from Alabama.

The Indianapolis Colts took a quarterback with the fourth pick when they chose Anthony Richardson from the University of Florida.

The draft was held in Kansas City, home of the defending Super Bowl winners, the Chiefs.
