  • Preseason Blitz: Bryce Young looks good, Steelers QB battle looks settled

    It was another busy day of NFL preseason action as teams wrap up their exhibition slate leading into the regular season. The day started with Panthers QB Bryce Young making his 2024 preseason debut, and he looked very sharp in leading the team to a touchdown on his lone drive of the day. Coming off an ugly rookie season, Young enters Year 2 with some positive momentum.

    Meanwhile, the Steelers appear to have made their decision on the starting QB after the team pulled Russell Wilson following a a very brief (and strong) showing in Saturday's preseason game. All indications point to Wilson starting Week 1 for the Steelers with Justin Fields as his backup.

    And hey, remember Cam Akers? He was once a rising star for the Rams before his career went downhill. Based on his performance for the Texas Saturday, he looks like he's still got some gas in the tank.
