The 2021 season was a forgettable one for Washington defensive end Chase Young. The 2020 NFL defensive rookie of the year played in nine games and recorded only 1.5 sacks before tearing his ACL in November.
Much of the drama last offseason was Young skipping voluntary offseason workouts. While that didn’t necessarily correlate to Young’s struggles last season, head coach Ron Rivera would prefer his young star pass-rusher be with the team.
