Posted: Sun Aug 18, 2019 5:44 am
Young is a 5-11, 201, Junior safety from San Diego, CA. His played in 20 games over the past 2 years (10 each year) with 18 total starts (9 each year). Young played primarily as a free safety, but last year also played some spur when required. He's made 91 tackles (6.5 for a loss), 4 interceptions, and 8 pass break-ups for his career.
After his first full off-season, Young has been identified as one of the most vocal leader's of the defense. He should start at free safety and be a key play maker in the defensive backfield.
Good trivia info - Young changed his number to 6 this year to get a new start and honor Chuck Cecil who attended the same high school as Young. Young asked Chuck before making the change.
Here's a good write-up on Young from the start of camp by Christian Mortensen at AZ Desert Swarm.
