Washington Selects Chase Young No. 2 in 2020 NFL Draft

Washington has selected defensive end Chase Young No. 2 overall in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Young, a former standout at Ohio State, recorded a Buckeyes-record 16.5 sacks in 2019 and led the nation in tackles for loss per game. The 6'5'' Young took home a number of awards last season, including first-team Associated Press All-American honors and the Chuck Bednarik, Ted Hendricks and Bronko Nagurski awards as the top defender or defensive lineman in the country. He was also a Heisman Trophy finalist.

Cincinnati selected quarterback Joe Burrow with the No. 1 pick in Thursday's draft.
