An NFL star has suffered an embarrassing slip-up while being interviewed by a double-amputee reporter.
Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young, 25, was fielding questions from veteran journalist Dave Stevens — who was born without both legs.

But I don’t think either man was ready for the NFL star’s response.
Young said: “Definitely the goal (to get into the Hall of Fame).
“But that’s a long-term one right now. Can’t think too far ahead right now. It’s about being the best version of the team we are.
“Training camp’s about finding that, so I’m definitely where my feet are right now.”
Stevens handled the unfortunate remark with a brilliant sense of humour as he quickly responded: “Speaking of feet, I don’t have any.”
The comment saw Young burst out laughing, before he composed himself to finish the interview.
But the clip swiftly went viral on social media as viewers poured in with their reactions.
NFL fan Casey Jones joked about Young’s thought process, saying: “’Don’t say legs. Don’t say legs. Don’t say legs.’ ‘Definitely where my feet are right now’. NOOOOOO.”
Alex Bush defended the athlete, adding: “I mean, it’s not everyday you talk to someone without legs so simple mistake. You are used to talking freely to a certain extent.”
Fitz Erino said: “Shout out to the interviewer for rolling with it.”
Eric Benton replied: “Straight out of South Park.”
And Counc Rich responded: “Once that left his mouth he was fighting for his life to grab it back.”
