Panthers QB Bryce Young on Terrace Marshall Jr. getting cut: 'That one hurt'
Terrace Marshall Jr.'s hard work may not have earned him a spot on the Carolina Panthers' initial 53-man roster, but it certainly didn't go unnoticed.
Despite a standout summer, the 24-year-old wide receiver was officially waived on Tuesday. A former second-round pick, Marshall Jr. accounted as one of 31 players who were cut by the Panthers on the afternoon.
Quarterback Bryce Young, a teammate of Marshall Jr.'s for nearly two years in Carolina, was asked about the move following today's practice.
"That's someone who works extremely hard, cares, is always the last person on the field," Young told reporters. "Obviously, the business of it—you never know where people end up, what's going on. But that's someone I believe in tremendously."
“That’s my guy, that one hurt.” - Bryce Young on the #Panthers cutting of Terrace Marshall today.
Young said he believes tremendously in Marshall, calls him a great person, and he thinks he has shown a lot of growth.

Marshall Jr. didn't see much success in his past three NFL seasons. Since being taken with the 59th overall pick in 2021, he's recorded just 64 catches for 767 yards and one touchdown over 36 games.
Any other team can now claim Marshall Jr. off waivers by 12 p.m. ET tomorrow.
