Why Bryce Young Has Impressed Gronk and Jules: 'Really Fun To Watch'

Week 2 of the NFL season did not provide as many offensive fireworks as the opening week, but a pair of NFC stars stood out among the rest.

Bryce Young and Jaxon Smith-Njigba each led their teams to victory by accounting for three touchdowns in Week 2.

On the latest episode of FOX Sports' "Gronk & Jules," Edelman chose the Carolina Panthers quarterback and Gronkowski picked the Seattle Seahawks receiver as their Employees of the Week.

Young completed 23 of 36 passes for 287 yards and three touchdowns, including two to Darren Waller, in a 34-3 win over the Atlanta Falcons.

"I think Bryce Young had an unbelievable game," Edelman said.

"Doesn't make too many self-inflicting mistakes.

He'll take what the defense gives him.

He hits the big opportunity when they give him the big opportunity.

He's been really fun to watch, and he's coming into his own." The performance followed a Week 1 game in which Young threw for 361 yards in a 59-37 loss to the Chicago Bears.

"They've scored a lot of points these last two weeks," Edelman said.

"He's been getting better every week.

For 5'10 at quarterback, it's crazy." Gronkowski pointed to Young's benching back in 2024 as the turning point.

Head coach Dave Canales sat Young in favor of Andy Dalton after Carolina's 0-2 start to the 2024 season.

"The benching was totally accurate," Gronkowski said.
