Frank Reich is Unsure if Bryce Young Will Play vs. Lions

The coaching staff will have a decision to make.

Through two preseason games, first-overall pick Bryce Young has completed 7-of-12 pass attempts for 56 yards. Head coach Frank Reich openly admitted that the Panthers ran a "vanilla" offense in the preseason opener, but opened it up a little bit in Friday night's game.

Although we haven't seen all that much from Young, it may be enough for Reich to say, "I've seen enough" and hold him out of the preseason finale next week versus Detroit. 

That's a decision he's not ready to make or if he already has, he's not willing to share it with the public just yet.

"I'm not going to say anything 100% sure," said Reich when asked if Young and other starters will play next week. "Right now, the plan is for everybody to get ready to play. We'll see how we come out of this game injury-wise. We'll talk about it as a coaching staff and see what we need to accomplish. If I feel like we need to accomplish something, as a coaching staff if we feel like there's things we need to accomplish in one more preseason game, then we'll play the guys that need to be in there for that. If I feel like we're ready, then we won't play those guys."
