Chase Young credits Saints veterans for leadership he missed early

New Orleans Saints edge rusher Chase Young finished the season with his first double digit total of his career, recording 10 sacks, the second most on the team, despite missing the first five games. Even with a shortened season, Young proved that he can be a game changing presence off the edge.

Alongside the veteran leadership of Cameron Jordan and Demario Davis, Young has grown comfortable and reenergized in New Orleans, fueling his desire to extend his stay with the Saints beyond the two remaining years on his contract. This renewed purpose to the team has him fully committed to make an impact in New Orleans longterm.
