Get excited, Panthers fans … Bryce Young tells TMZ Sports he believes he’s going to turn things around in Carolina next season — saying straight up, “I’m definitely confident.”
Of course, the quarterback’s rookie season was filled with plenty of speed bumps — he threw just 11 touchdowns to 10 interceptions … and only secured two wins in his 16 starts.
But, he’s not down on himself at all … ’cause when we spoke to him out at Super Bowl week in Las Vegas, he sure seemed to think things are going to be a whole lot different 12 months from now.
“I feel like I’ve grown — I’ve learned,” the 2023 No. 1 overall pick said. “I’m excited to improve this offseason. Get better at some things — I’m excited for year 2.”
Young actually told us all of the growing pains he and his team went through last season will only make them stronger … feeling like they all “grew a lot closer through that.”
As for the Panthers’ new coach, former Buccaneers offensive coordinator Dave Canales, the ex-Heisman Trophy winner seemed fired up to begin working with him as well.

“I’m most definitely ready,” the LSU signal-caller said.
