Chase Young was back at the Ashburn facility Monday but the reaction of Commanders fans was rather mixed in response.
The Commanders quickly tweeted a video of Young stating he was back for media day. Unfortunately, many fans did not take too kindly to Young stating he was back for media day.
Commanders Wire will not reveal those tweets, as more than a few were inappropriate for our site.

Commanders Wire has been disappointed that Young chose not to work out the last two opportunities he was given. He was one of only three players (Montez Sweat, Charles Leno) who chose not to attend the last two weeks of “voluntary” workouts.
But certainly, Commanders Wire wholeheartedly hopes that Young has a big 2023 and performs like the player that was selected No. 2 in 2020. What a fun thing it would be to see the Commanders have a big-time pass rusher in Young, who brought great expectations when he was voted NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year after his 2020 season.
Here is a sampling of some of the Twitter reactions to Young’s Monday return in time for media day.
