San Francisco 49ers defensive end Chase Young could not have scripted his trade from Washington in season any better.
Young was traded in the dying days of Ron Rivera at the Washington Commanders and he has not looked back an iota as he prepates to take on the Chiefs on the greatest stage of all, the Superbowl.
When asked then if the 49ers would be in Superbowl contention he answered quickly, definitively with a resounding yes.
He joined former Ohio teammate Nick Bosa afyer Washington declined to offer him a new contract after his five year deal was up, despite his Defensive Rookie of the Year award.
Young gets a chance to show the capital side just what they are missing out on and achieve a boyhood dream in the process.
