Commanders defensive end Chase Young tore the ACL in his right knee last November, which ended his season and began a long recovery process. While Young continues to get healthier, he may not have enough time to return for Week 1.
According to ESPN’s John Keim, it is a possibility that Young will begin the season on injured reserve depending on how his recovery goes.
Young is expected to begin training camp on the PUP list, and coach Ron Rivera said last week that they know they can’t rush Young back.
