Chase Young Growing Into Leader On Buckeye Defense

Ohio State junior defensive end Chase Young is off to a big start in his third season with the program.

Young recorded five tackles and 1.5 sacks in the season-opener against FAU.

He was limited by injuries to both ankles as a sophomore in 2018, but still recorded 10.5 sacks, the 7th-best season in program history.

Young has his eyes set on breaking the Buckeyes’ single-season sack record of 14 (Vernon Gholston, 2007) this fall, and is already off to a big start. The single-game sack record (4.0, by four different players) is worth keeping an eye on as well.

OSU head coach Ryan Day said this week that Young has been an impact player for the Buckeyes, both on and off the field.

“Strong presence. Strong personality from start to finish all week,” Day said. “He was strong on the field. He was strong before the game, and then on the field but he backed it up.”

Young’s impact on the field, and specifically on the bodies of opposing quarterbacks, is obvious. His ability to influence those around him on the sidelines and in the practice facility is a little more subtle.

Late in Saturday’s win over FAU, after the Owls completed a touchdown drive, Young sought out redshirt freshman defensive end Javontae Jean-Baptiste to share some insights on what he saw on the field.
