This might be an issue for Bryce Young.
Bryce Young is a small man. That statement would be true even if Bryce Young was an accountant or engineer or lawyer, but it’s especially true in his chosen line of work, which is NFL quarterback. The No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft is listed at 5’10, 204 pounds on the Carolina Panthers’ official roster, and that is putting it generously. If Young succeeds, he will be the smallest QB in the modern era to do so.
The Panthers are getting their first look at the top pick in OTA practices this week.

NFL owners approved a new rule on kickoffs that has a lot of people talking, and we can now add Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh to that list.
The new rule dictates that receiving team that calls for a fair catch inside the 25-yard line, will start their drive on the 25-yard line. This is just like college football, but many argue that it’s the latest step toward eliminating kickoffs from football.
Andy Reid said it. Pat McAfee said it.
Glen ‘Big Baby’ Davis is calling out his former team, the Boston Celtics, for their sloppy focus throughout the Eastern Conference Finals against the Miami Heat.
Davis is perhaps best known for his integral play in the heated Celtics-Lakers rival in the late aughts. In his rookie season in ’08, Davis became a reliable big man for Boston and helped them win the Finals that year against LA.
Allie Baldelli, the wife of Twins manager Rocco Baldelli, couldn’t have made the couple’s pregnancy announcement on Wednesday any more perfect.
The couple’s almost two-year-old daughter Louisa held pictures of the ultrasounds around her head in a series of pictures posted by Allie on Instagram. In a video, Louisa says there are “two babies” coming.
Yes, you got that right. The manager of the Twins is going to have twins of his own.
There will surely be a lot of jokes made about the coincidence of Baldelli managing the “twins” on and off the field from here on out.
Todd Covington entered Nationals Park to watch the Nationals battle against the Padres in the second of a three-game series on Wednesday. By the time he exited the stadium, Covington had not only witnessed Washington secure a 5–3 victory but found himself being lauded as a hero for saving a man’s life who was choking during the game.
Grant Paulsen of 106.7 The Fan in Washington reported that when a group of fans sitting in section 113 in Nationals Park noticed that the man was choking, they immediately stopped watching the game and called for assistance.
Bronny James’ commitment to USC this summer sent shockwaves throughout college basketball, and when he finally steps on the court for his first college game, it’s expected to bring an unprecedented level of attention to a program that’s long existed in the shadow of crosstown rival UCLA and the Trojans’ football team.
All of that means tickets to USC basketball games will likely be a hot commodity once the season starts—but don’t attribute any rising prices to James’ presence.
The 2023 offseason has seen the Raiders add two former Patriots quarterbacks to the franchise, albeit in very different roles.
Jimmy Garoppolo signed with the AFC West squad to start at quarterback, after six seasons with the 49ers. He previously backed up Tom Brady, who recently agreed to buy an ownership stake in the Las Vegas franchise, with New England.
On Thursday, The Athletic reported that Garoppolo had surgery on the foot injury that ended his 2022 season after signing with the Raiders, and is set to miss the team’s ongoing offseason training activities as he recovers.
Raiders coach Josh McDaniels said Thursday that he has no issue with Davante Adams venting to The Ringer, as the receiver, entering his 10th NFL season, has “an opinion and a voice because [he’s] earned it” over the course of his career.
Newly acquired Giants tight end Darren Waller feels empowered in the culture that coach Brian Daboll has established compared to his previous stops.
Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo had surgery on his left foot in March, a source confirmed to ESPN.
