Tom Pelissero reports that free agent pass-rusher Chase Young is set to visit with the Panthers and Saints, with several other teams expressing interest in the former Defensive Rookie of the Year.
Aaron Wilson reports that Young is also expected to visit with the Titans.
Young, 24, was a two-year starter at Ohio State and was a first-team All-American when Washington used the No. 2 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft on him. He was later named the NFL’s Defensive Rookie of the Year for the 2020 season.
Young signed a four-year, $34,563,594 rookie contract that included a $22,697,160 signing bonus. The contract included a fifth year for Washington to pick up for the 2024 season, which they opted to decline.
The team then traded him to the 49ers at the deadline for a compensatory third-round pick.
In 2023, Young appeared in seven games for the Commanders and nine games for the 49ers. He recorded 25 total tackles, seven tackles for loss, 7.5 sacks and two pass deflections.
We have him included in our Top 100 – 2024 NFL Free Agents list.
