The 2023 No. 1 overall draft pick Bryce Young has gotten off to a slow start so far in his NFL career. As a result, head coach Dave Conales has announced that the 23-year-old is being benched ahead of the team's Week 3 matchup vs. the Las Vegas Raiders.
In view of Young's last game, one user on X made a comment, "Bruh wtf did Bryce's girl leave him or something."
Then someone else responded, "she actually did, they caught her with Tyrese Maxey at the eagles game."

So just when things seemingly couldn't get any worse, the world now knows that the former Alabama quarterback may have also lost his girl. Philadelphia 76ers point guard Tyrese Maxey supposedly is the one that stole Gordon's girlfriend, who was a basketball player at Alabama named Myra Gordon

Now fast forward to last Monday Night Football's game between the Eagles and Atlanta Falcons, Maxey appeared on the Jumbotron, sitting next to Gordon, who everyone thought was Young's girl.
To note, this was the same day that reports came out that Young lost his starting quarterback job.

To point out, Gordon has also been previously linked to Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders and Houston Rockets guard Jalen Green.
In Young's rookie year, the Panthers had a 2-15 record, and now after the team has gotten off to a 0-2 start this season, they made the decision to start 36-year-old veteran quarterback Andy Dalton.
So far throughout his career, Young has averaged only 173 passing yards per game, while throwing more interceptions (13) than touchdowns (11). Last year Young had a 34.3 QBR, which ranked him second-last in the NFL behind Zach Wilson.
