Bryce Young set to debut in Panthers' preseason game against Bills

Summary

Bryce Young will make his preseason debut for the Carolina Panthers against the Buffalo Bills, as head coach Dave Canales plans for him to play 10 to 20 snaps. Young sat out the previous game against the Arizona Cardinals, where established starters were rested. This gives Young an opportunity to build game-time chemistry with his teammates. The Panthers participated in the Hall of Fame Game but chose to evaluate reserve players in that matchup instead.
