2026 Outlook
Young may be among the most important defensive linemen to watch when training camp opens. At 6-3 and 292 pounds, the former Alabama defender has already drawn attention by working with Philadelphia's first-team defense during spring drills, giving him a legitimate chance to turn that opportunity into a meaningful role. He needs to prove he can hold up against the run, create disruption on rotation, and earn coordinator Vic Fangio's trust in regular-season situations. If spring momentum carries into padded practices, Young could deepen the Eagles' defensive tackle rotation even further. (per Eagles training camp preview: Philly's defensive line remains loaded)
