Panthers QB Bryce Young shares what he learned from Kobe Bryant as a kid

Bryce Young revealed what he learned from The Black Mamba when he was just a little Carolina Reaper.

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young was taken aback by an unexpected photo featuring him alongside former coach Kliff Kingsbury during a youth football camp. The image surfaced during ESPN's Monday Night Football ManningCast, hosted by Peyton and Eli Manning, sending the middle-schooler into fits of laughter and leaving Young momentarily at a loss for how his brothers came across the old photograph.

Young expressed his astonishment, stating, "Where are you all getting these clips from?" The throwback moment provided a refreshing change of pace for the quarterback, who has been making waves in the NFL recently. With 1,268 passing yards and a 100.0 passer rating, Young has been a standout performer for the Panthers in the team's 2-2 season standing.

Despite challenges, his development has been a highlight of the season, and this light-hearted encounter served as a reminder of his growing confidence and command on the field.
