NBC Sports cousin Mike Florio over Pro Football Talk reported Sunday night that defensive end Willie Young wants to be traded, and a mild surprise will be if the Bears don’t accommodate him in some form.
Jared Allen didn’t agitate for a trade so much as have a candid talk with the organization that he didn’t feel like his play at rush linebacker was really working, and the Bears dealt him to Carolina. Young has acknowledged that he still doesn’t “feel” like a linebacker, and he hasn’t played like one, at least not the kind that coach John Fox and coordinator Vic Fangio need.
