Bryce Young is a Heisman Trophy winner, a former No. 1 overall pick, and a starting quarterback for an NFL franchise. Needless to say, he's a prevalent face among football circles.
Young experienced his fair share of valleys and peaks throughout the first couple years of his NFL career, but he's remained even-keeled — and marketable. As he looks to return the Panthers to league-wide relevance, Young has remained in the public eye through his partnerships, endorsements and community involvement.
As he continues to work to shake off early woes to live up to the high expectations associated with being a top pick, Young can instill enough confidence in Carolina to make him its franchise QB. With a larger payday still a ways away, here is a look at what he's earned during the early stages of his career.
