  • Young (knee) was limited in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against New England, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports. Young was limited in practice all week due to a knee injury he likely picked up during the Rams' Week 10 loss to the Dolphins this past Monday. If Young is unable to play Sunday, Michael Hoecht would be the top candidate to start at outside linebacker opposite Jared Verse.

  • Young (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's walkthrough, Cameron DaSilva of the USA Today reports. Young appears to have sustained a knee injury in the Rams' Week 10 loss to the Dolphins on Monday night, despite playing 43 defensive snaps and recording four total tackles, including 1.0 sacks. The second-year edge rusher's participation in practice Thursday and Friday will provide the best indication of whether he can play through this knee issue in the Rams' Week 11 matchup against the Patriots.

  • Young totaled six tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 26-20 overtime victory against the Seahawks. Young added two quarterback hits to his third-quarter sack. He nearly had another sack, but it was wiped out by a defensive offside penalty. Young has recorded a sack in consecutive weeks and is up to 4.0 sacks through eight games on the season, half of the total he registered over 17 regular-season contests as a rookie last year.

  • Young recorded four tackles (two solo) including 1.0 sacks and a forced fumble during Sunday's 27-24 win versus the 49ers. Young made a swift swim move around Colton McKivitz before connecting with Brock Purdy during his windup, creating a turnover and tallying his second sack of the season. He's off to a fast start in 2024 after a promising rookie year in 2023, and he'll look to keep piling up sacks at Chicago in Week 4.

  • Young recorded four tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Sunday's 26-20 overtime loss to the Lions. After a 2023 campaign that saw the third-round pick rack up 8.0 sacks, Young came out against the Lions and got on the board in a hurry. On the Lions first drive, Young was able to sack Jared Goff on third down, forcing a three-and-out and setting the tone for the Rams' defense for much of the day. Young will look to continue rolling against Kyler Murray and the Cardinals in Week 2.
