Quick Glance: Chase Young signs with Saints: Former No. 2 overall pick secures one-year, fully-guaranteed $13 million deal

- Young was traded from the Washington Commanders to the 49ers at last year's trade deadline. He played nine games for the 49ers last season, recording 10 combined tackles, 2.5 sacks, and six quarterback hits. He also contributed in the playoffs and Super Bowl LVIII.
- Selected as the top pick by the Commanders in 2020, Young earned NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year honors and a Pro Bowl selection. Despite injuries cutting his playing time short, he showed promise with Washington before the trade, demonstrating his skills on the field.
- Joining New Orleans, Young adds depth to the pass-rushing unit alongside players like Cameron Jordan, Carl Granderson, and Payton Turner. With 16.5 sacks in 43 career games, he aims to validate his status as a key starter in the league.

apnews.com/article/justin-fields-traded-steelers-bears-2720ac8bd82e00abeb53090c9cf22007
Quick Glance: Bears Trade Justin Fields to Steelers, Pave Way for Promising Quarterback
- The trade of Justin Fields from the Chicago Bears to the Pittsburgh Steelers cleared the path to potentially draft USC's Caleb Williams with the first overall pick.

- Chicago missed out on a significant opportunity by not trading the first pick for a substantial return.
- The historically quarterback-challenged Bears seldom have the chance to select a talent like Williams.
