Bryce Has A Inspiring Story

Craig shared his son’s inspirational story during the Heisman ceremony that Alabama broadcasted in November 2021. 

As per The L.A. Times, Young’s father utilized his instincts, which he gained through his football career that never took off. Craig is not just an average quarterback father; he is pretty calculated and moves with elegance.

Besides, Young and Kevin Pearson, who coached his son in his first two years of high school at L.A. Cathedral, met while Bryce was in the seventh grade. 

Pearson viewed a young football video of Bryce and couldn’t believe how the ball spun off his hand. Given Craig’s goals, it’s no wonder the Youngs opted to send Bryce to Cathedral for ninth grade. 

When he met Craig, he wanted him to realize something crucial about the coming years.
