Bryce Young’s Former Flame Myra Gordon Reportedly Dating Tyrese Maxey After NFL QB Benching

Tough times seem to be hitting Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young harder than anyone could have anticipated. Just days after losing his starting QB position, the young NFL star has been dealt another blow—his rumored ex-girlfriend, Myra Gordon, is reportedly dating NBA point guard Tyrese Maxey.

Fans have taken to social media to express their disappointment and, unsurprisingly, the news has only added to the mounting pressure on Young. The rumors began innocuously, with Maxey leaving comments on Gordon’s Instagram photos. But things escalated when the two were seen together at an Eagles game, fueling widespread speculation about their budding relationship.

As if struggling through one of the worst stretches of his career wasn’t enough, Young now has to watch his personal life unravel publicly. His breakdown after a dismal performance against the Chargers this week seemed to signal just how heavy the weight has become. Reduced to tears after the game, Young’s frustration was palpable—a symbol of how badly things have spiraled for him both on and off the field.

For Panthers fans, this latest development has been the spark for a troubling wave of negativity directed at Myra Gordon. Social media trolls have flooded her Instagram posts with cruel comments, accusing her of “breaking” Bryce and comparing her dating life to something out of a villain’s playbook. Some even likened her to Thanos, citing her rumored relationships with other high-profile athletes.

Ironically, Gordon’s most recent post, where the real drama erupted, was about a personal achievement—becoming a licensed realtor. But what should have been a celebratory moment was overshadowed by the onslaught of criticism. Even Maxey’s playful comment, “Soooooo can u find me a house orrrrrr,” couldn’t ease the tension.

The comments section on Gordon’s post has become a battlefield, where fans seem more interested in dissecting her dating history than in celebrating her accomplishment. It’s a bitter reminder of the toxic side of fame. Rumors of past flings with CU Buffs star Shedeur Sanders and Rockets guard Jalen Green have only fueled the flames.

It’s worth noting that Gordon’s personal life is her own, and while it’s fair game for the public to take notice, it doesn’t justify the harsh backlash. Instead of attacking her, Panthers fans might do well to focus their energy elsewhere—like rallying around their struggling quarterback.

In fact, NFL star Sauce Gardner provided a glimmer of hope for fans with a now-deleted tweet suggesting that Young listen to “Needed That” by A Boogie wit da Hoodie to help cope with his heartbreak. While the gesture garnered mixed reactions, it was a reminder that there are better ways to support Bryce through these difficult times than tearing down others.

Bryce Young needs all the support he can get right now. The focus shouldn’t be on who’s dating whom, but on how to get Young back to the form that once made him a promising talent. For now, it’s Bryce who needs the win.
