Panthers GM Dan Morgan is asked if QB Bryce Young is in a 'prove-it' situation
Rich Eisen probed Panthers GM Dan Morgan about Bryce Young's contract situation on Tuesday.
Carolina Panthers general manager Dan Morgan continues to wear his poker face when talking about the long-term outlook on quarterback Bryce Young. Morgan joined Tuesday's episode of The Rich Eisen Show , where host Rich Eisen did his best to dig up any new info on a potential contract extension for the soon-to-be fourth-year passer. But Morgan, as he's done all offseason, stuck to the script when asked if Young has to prove that he's worth a new deal.
"I think everybody on our roster has to prove, every single day, their value and worth and everybody knows that in this building—that you have to go work and go earn everything," Morgan replied . "But yeah, Bryce—in terms of him having to earn it—everybody on the roster has to earn it. "Again, he's headed in the right direction, we feel great about him and, again, we'll get it done at the right time.
