There’s a new face of the Carolina Panthers franchise after the team selected Alabama quarterback Bryce Young as the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL Draft on Thursday.

The good news for Panthers fans is that Young’s Nike jersey is already available on Fanatics.com and the team’s official website . According to price listings, adult jerseys are $130, and youth jerseys are $90.

However, according to Fanatics, pre-orders will not be shipped until two to four weeks after the NFL confirms Young’s jersey number. Confirmation will occur no later than the start of the NFL season on Sept. 7.

At a press conference on Friday, Young said he had not decided whether to wear No. 9 as he did at Alabama.

“We haven’t gotten that far,” Young said. “Right now, I’m still trying to be in the moment, and I’m just super grateful to be here and to have this opportunity.”
