I heard an incredibly interesting comp for Bryce Young last week, from a coach who’s got pretty good intel on the Alabama quarterback—one that’s, admittedly, unconventional:
Steph Curry.
Yes, really. And it does make some sense, first and foremost in how calmly Young plays, and also in his vision, instincts and feel for the game. Then, there’s Young’s ability to consistently put the ball where he wants it, which, of course, Curry is pretty adept at in his sport. All of which helps both guys overcome their relative lack of stature, and everyman sort of appearance for a pro athlete (or pro athlete-to-be).
