Summary

Zion Young is a powerful, high-motor defensive end who excels at moving the pocket through sheer strength. He’s not the most athletic, nor is he the bendiest around the edge, but he uses heavy hands to bully offensive tackles and collapse the pocket. He’s a disciplined run defender who sets a firm edge and plays with a relentless motor. His game is built on physicality rather than finesse or speed.
