Panthers QB Bryce Young Involves in Training Camp Altercation Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young found himself at the center of a heated altercation during Monday’s training camp practice, according to reports from The Athletic’s Joe Person. The incident, which occurred on August 10, reportedly began when safety Lathan Ransom attempted to tackle running back Jonathon Brooks during a run play. Young, who was present during the drill, reportedly took offense to the play, leading to a confrontation between him and cornerback Mike Jackson. The conflict escalated, with the two exchanging words and continuing to argue minutes later. An offensive lineman also became involved, and someone sustained a head injury during the scuffle. Following the practice, Young, Jackson, and safety Nick Scott engaged in a lengthy conversation. Scott later addressed the incident in his post-practice press conference, acknowledging the physical nature of training camp. “At this point in camp, there’s just a level of physicality that naturally happens,” Scott said. He noted that the padded drills, combined with the heat, contribute to the intensity of interactions. “We haven’t seen a different color in a long, long time. The pads have been on, it’s hot and everything like that. So, that’s part of the game. You want it. But at the same time, there’s that aspect of protecting the team and guys that you’re going to need on Sunday, for sure.” Scott emphasized that the incident was not a major issue and that the team remained focused on its goals. “This is not like the sitcom of the Panthers,” he said, adding that the team was having fun and that the camp was progressing well. “We’re a physical, a physical, physical team, and that’s what we love about this team. I feel like day in and day out, we bring it.#carolina_panthers #mike_jackson #jonathon_brooks #bryce_young #lathan_ransom
