The San Francisco 49ers have reportedly traded for Washington Commanders edge rusher Chase Young as they look to bolster their Super Bowl campaign.
ESPN reported that the 49ers sent a third-round pick to the Commanders in return for Chase, who was the No 2 overall selection in the 2020 draft. Although he struggled with injuries in the 2021 and 2022 seasons he was defensive rookie of the year in 2020 and has been in good form this season, recording five sacks so far.
