The Los Angeles Rams were desperate for pass-rush help this offseason, which is why they drafted three of them in April. The first was Byron Young, a promising and chiseled pass rusher out of Tennessee.
Young will be a 25-year-old rookie with just two seasons at the FBS level, but he was productive in his brief time at Tennessee, recording 12.5 sacks in two years.
With so much uncertainty at outside linebacker, Young should get the opportunity to contribute early on in Los Angeles. Don’t be surprised if he ends up being one of the Rams’ most important players by the middle of the season.
