Chase Young underwent offseason neck surgery in March and is expected to be ready for Week 1. He dealt with a neck stinger in the preseason last year but was able to play 16 games, totaling 7.5 sacks. However, there is concern about whether he can last a full season, especially after being traded from Washington, where he played opposite Nick Bosa.

Jul 28, 2023

The No. 2 overall selection in 2020 is still not fully healthy heading into training camp. Last season, the Pro Football Docs assigned him a SIC score of 63 — which ended up being too generous for his production. His ACL tear in November 2021 also included a torn patellar tendon, which necessitated a surgery in his other knee for the patellar tendon graft. That delayed his return in 2022 and he finished with no sacks in 3 games. The severity of his knee injury likely contributed to Washington’s decision to decline his fifth year option.
