Carolina Panthers take Bryce Young with the first overall pick in the NFL Draft

It's official, last night with the first overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft the Carolina Panthers selected Bryce Young as their future quarterback. Bryce Young had his introductory press conference this afternoon at Bank of America Stadium as he spoke with the media. Pat Welter of WRAL Sports is on-site and shares what the experience was like as the fans welcomed Bryce Young and what stood out the most during his press conference.

Also, the Carolina Hurricanes return to action tonight as they face the New York Islanders in Game 6 on the road in Long Island. Rod Brind'Amour hasn't announced who the starting goaltender will be. It's important for the Carolina Hurricanes to close things out tonight so that they don't have to return to PNC Arena for Game 7 on Sunday. 

The Drive with Tim Donnelly airs weekdays 3-6pm on 99.9 The Fan in Raleigh, North Carolina. Clips are published every evening after the show.
