Young says he’ll stick to ‘plan’ as he recovers from torn ACL

ASHBURN — Charles Leno has a bit different perspective than Ron Rivera when it comes to Chase Young attending the Commanders’ voluntary workout sessions. The coach, understandably, wants his star defensive end to attend and believes Young’s leadership can help build chemistry for the rest of the year.

“We need him for Sunday at the end of the day,” the left tackle said. “So whether it is here or Indonesia, I don’t care where (he’s) at.”

Young was nowhere close to the far east Wednesday as the 23-year-old returned to the team’s facility this week to join teammates for workouts.
