It was a banner day for Klutch Sports as they went into their first NFL Draft as an agency that represents NFL players. And one of the two players they signed in the lead up to the 2020 NFL Draft was selected as one of the top two picks in the first round of Thursday’s draft.
Ohio State edge rusher and Klutch Sports signee Chase Young was taken No. 2 overall in the 2020 NFL Draft by the Washington Redskins. Young was widely expected to be a top pick in this year’s draft and ends up with the Redksins, who have been in the basement of the NFC East for the last couple of years. Young is arguably the best player in the draft.

Over his three seasons, Young had over 30 sacks with the Buckeyes. Last year was his best season ever with 16.5 sacks in only 12 games. He also had a ridiculous seven forced fumbles last season with a great Buckeyes team.
