Bryce Young to start for Panthers; Jonathon Brooks may make debut - ESPN

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Quarterback Bryce Young will make a second straight start for the Carolina Panthers on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints, and rookie running back Jonathon Brooks could make his NFL debut.

»And I'm excited for Bryce to have another opportunity to build on things that we've talked about. To continue to just grow and get that experience that we talked about is invaluable."

This will be Young's second start against the Saints. He completed 13 of 30 pass attempts for 161 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions in a 47-10 loss in New Orleans in Week 1.

Brooks won't start, but he'll get some reps behind Hubbard if he's ready.
