Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young may need to wait a bit before he is a true trade candidate.
Dianna Russini of The Athletic reported on Saturday that while the Panthers are “receiving calls” about the 23-year-old, the team is currently “not considering” moving Young and that others around the league believe Carolina could get better compensation in the offseason:
It’s not a surprise the Carolina Panthers continue receiving multiple calls from teams interested in trading for former No. 1 overall pick Bryce Young. At this time, Carolina is not considering moving the quarterback, who is starting Sunday against the Saints. The Panthers were encouraged by his improvements and overall commitment to the team in his return to the field last week. I do expect the team will assess everything this offseason and make a decision on Young’s future in Carolina. NFL executives around the league believe if Carolina decides to trade him they’ll get a better deal by waiting until offseason anyways. As for the rest of the roster, teams believe Carolina is open to moving running back Miles Sanders and edge Jadeveon Clowney.
