The 2020 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year is progressing nicely, according to a source, but it remains unclear if he will be available for Washington’s Week 1 home game against the Cardinals. Young has not participated in a full practice since the Aug. 11 game at Cleveland.
Washington made multiple transactions with its defensive line this week, placing two players on injured reserve while Young remains on the active roster.
Coach Ron Rivera informed reporters that Young was to meet with a medical professional last Friday, but Rivera has passed on answering subsequent follow-ups about the situation.
