Kenny Young has “mixed emotions” about being traded from playoff contender Rams to spiraling Broncos

After being traded from a playoff contender to a team in free-fall, new Broncos inside linebacker Kenny Young said he has “mixed emotions” about being in Denver.

Young, who started each of the first seven games for the one-loss Rams, was traded Monday along with a 2024 seventh-round pick, to the Broncos in exchange for a sixth-round pick in ’24. Despite a short turnaround to learn Denver’s defense, he’ll likely be called on to play Sunday against Washington due to the team’s large number of injuries at the position.

“You’re always excited (with a trade) because you have a new welcoming home, but on the human side of it, I am feeling mixed emotions,” Young said Wednesday.
