The edge rusher was listed as limited during Wednesday&#8217;s practice but got in two full sessions Thursday and Friday, paving the way to be cleared for his first action of the season.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Very positive, a lot of good things throughout the week, and there&#8217;s a lot of confidence,&#8221; coach Ron Rivera said. &#8220;Obviously, we have to be smart because it&#8217;s his first introduction to full contact, full-speed contact other than what he had in practice this week. And he had a very good week. I mean, the young man has worked his tail off. I think he&#8217;s done the things that they&#8217;ve needed to see, so that&#8217;s the real big positive for us going forward.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>          <span>            Related Links          <\/span>        <\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>              NFL Week 2 bold predictions: Jets stun Dallas with dynamic RB duo; Anthony Richardson runs wild            <\/li>\n<li>              Week 2 NFL picks: Who wins juicy Ravens-Bengals bout?

He suffered a season-ending ACL tear in 2021 and didn&#8217;t return to the field until the final three games of the 2022 season.<\/p>\n<p>The injury history caused the Commanders to decline Young&#8217;s fifth-year option, making him a free agent after this season.<\/p>\n<p>In three years, Young has appeared in 27 games, compiling nine sacks and 75 tackles, most of which (7.5 sacks, 44 tackles) came in his rookie campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Needing an excellent season to strike an offseason pay day, Young staying healthy for the bulk of the season will be essential.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Just trying to be the best Chase that I can be,&#8221; Young said Friday. &#8220;Just trying to do my job, and trying to contribute.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For a Washington defensive line that dominated Arizona in Week 1, generating a 39.4 pressure rate, per Next Gen Stats, and stymying the run game, getting Young back on the field makes a dangerous unit that much deeper and more dynamic.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/commanders-de-chase-young-neck-off-injury-report-set-to-make-season-debut\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ufeffChase Young\ufeff is ready for action.
