Bryce Young pushed through the “pain” for record day

And Young — and the rest of the team, as he keeps reminding us — went.

They trailed 21-7 just before half, and stole a field goal before the break, then got a quick touchdown to start the third quarter, and it was game on. And then, he proceeded to heat up, spreading the ball to nine different receivers, and orchestrating his 10th game-winning drive in his young career.

To do it after that fall required something more than passing accuracy.

“Oh, he was dealing with some stuff,” Canales said. “The ankle flared up a couple of times, and he was able to. They checked it out, and they made sure that everything was structurally fine.

“And, you know, at that point it was just a pain tolerance thing and he gutted it out. He wanted to do that for his teammates, and I’m just really proud of the way that he stepped in there and made the plays when we needed him to.”
