Dan Morgan was not the Carolina Panthers GM when the team made the choice to trade up for Bryce Young. He is the GM who was tasked with fixing the team around Young and making that decision work after the fact.

The Pro Bowl linebacker-turned-team executive chatted with reporters for his end-of-year press conference today. He hit on a number of topics—including his team’s 2024 performance, the futures of a few key players and the overall outlook going into 2025.

Young joined Cam Newton and Steve Beuerlein as the only quarterbacks in franchise history to account for five TDs in a game.
