Chase Young to resume practice 11 months since tearing ACL

Associated Press  

Chase Young is expected to practice with the Washington Commanders this week for the first time since tearing the ACL in his right knee 11 months ago. Coach Ron Rivera said Young will take part in positional workouts Wednesday before getting ramped up to participation in team drills at some point. Rivera said Young was “fired up” and looked ready to go upon learning he could start taking part in practice. “He understands that.. We’ve got to temper and got to make sure that Chase understands that where he is, we’ve got to be very, very diligent and stick with it.” Even if it’s a stretch to think Young could return Sunday against the 6-1 Minnesota Vikings, it’s not out of the realm of possibility he plays Monday, Nov. 14 at the unbeaten Philadelphia Eagles.
