  • Saints' Chase Young: Productive season as backup

    Young finished the 2024 regular season with 31 tackles (31 solo), including 5.5 sacks, three pass defenses and one forced fumble through 17 games.

    Despite serving as the backup defensive end behind Carl Granderson and Cameron Jordan all season long, Young ended up up playing at least 60 percent of the Saints' defensive snaps in 13 of 17 games, and his 5.5 sacks were his most since his rookie season with Washington in 2020 (7.5). Young signed a one-year, $13 million contract with the Saints in March of 2024, so he'll enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent for the second straight year.

  • Saints' Chase Young: Clear for Monday

    Young (illness) does not carry a designation ahead of Monday's game against the Packers.

    Young missed practice Thursday and Friday with an illness before returning as a full participant Saturday. The 2020 No. 2 overall pick has been productive in his first season with New Orleans, tallying 25 tackles, including 5.5 sacks, and two passes defended. He should reprise his role as the team's top rotational edge rusher behind Cameron Jordan and Carl Granderson on Monday.

  • Saints' Chase Young: Misses Friday's practice

    Young (illness) didn't practice Friday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    The 25-year-old has now missed two consecutive practices due to an illness, putting his status for the Saints' Week 16 matchup against the Packers in doubt. Young almost certainly needs to upgrade to at least limited practice participation Saturday in order to play Monday night. If he's unable to do so, Payton Turner is likely to serve as New Orleans' top rotational edge rusher.

  • Saints' Chase Young: Dealing with illness

    Young (illness) did not practice Thursday.

    Young is coming off a two-sack performance against the Commanders this past Sunday. However, it appears the 2020 first-pick is under the weather, which prevented him from participating in the Saints' first official practice of the week Thursday. Young will have two more opportunities to return to practice ahead of Monday night's game against the Packers.

  • Saints' Chase Young: Has multi-sack game Sunday

    Young recorded three tackles (three solo) including 2.0 sacks during Sunday's 20-19 loss versus the Commanders.

    Chase played one of his best games in recent memory against his former team in Week 15, posting two sacks for the first time since Week 7 of the 2023 season. He'll be hoping to add to his season sack total of 5.5 in Week 16 at Green Bay.
