Young took a lot of ribbing from teammates for the way he sat down on the artificial turf at Bank of America Stadium after a 13-yard scramble on third down that set up his first preseason touchdown in the 26-17 loss.
“Never claimed for it to be one of my strong suits,” Young said with a smile. “We currently have slide lessons already scheduled.”
Young, the 2021 Heisman Trophy winner, later admitted he never slid during his college career at Alabama. Third-string quarterback Matt Corral said it showed.
