On Thursday, Alabama sophomore quarterback Bryce Young made his press conference debut.
One of the many topics he discussed with the press was which NFL quarterbacks he likes to watch and model his style of play after.
Young mentioned Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson as the players he looks up to the most:
#Alabama QB Bryce Young said he likes to watch Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson to "try to emulate and get on that level."

Rodgers and Wilson are 2 of the best and most accomplished quarterbacks in the league. Rodgers is a Super Bowl (XLV) winning quarterback, a 9-time Pro Bowler, and a 3-time NFL MVP. Wilson, on the other hand, is a Super Bowl-winning quarterback, an 8-time Pro Bowler, and led the NFL in passing touchdowns in 2017.
Rodgers has a great combination of arm strength and accuracy. Wilson is a quarterback that is a dynamic throwing and running and is accurate even while scrambling.
These are attributes that Young has shown the most in the short time he has been in Alabama.
Young will get his first-ever collegiate start against Miami on Sept. 4.
