After Nick Bosa went down with a groin injury in Ohio State’s third game of the season against TCU, he announced he would not be returning to the team to focus on the NFL Draft. This opened the door for Chase Young to be the Buckeyes’ next star defensive end. However, despite still having a solid year, Young was unable to play at his highest level as a result of numerous injuries sustained early in the season.
Talking to the media on Thursday ahead of the Rose Bowl, Young revealed he played through pain most of the year with a high ankle sprain on his right foot and a low ankle sprain on his left foot.
