New York Jets vs Carolina Panthers 8/12/2023 Betting Picks
Coming into 2023, Carolina’s offensive roster is interesting. Young has the skills to thrive at the top level, but he may need some time to get used to the pace of the NFL. Given that no other Panthers receiver received more than 50 targets in 2017, Young will be able to work with a relatively new group of players.
Thielen, DJ Chark, and Jonathan Mingo lead the depth chart, offering Young reliable options. In this exhibition, key players won’t play long, and plays won’t be complex. Carolina’s backups could win, relying on young defensive players (a weak point last year). Get free sports expert picks today.
