Saints Extend DE Chase Young for Three Years, $51 Million

News summary

The New Orleans Saints have signed pass rusher Chase Young to a three-year contract worth $51 million, which could increase to $57 million based on incentives. Young, who previously played on a one-year 'prove-it' deal, showcased his potential by recording 5.5 sacks and a career-high 21 quarterback hits during the 2024 season. Despite injury setbacks in previous years, the Saints view Young as a key part of their future, betting on his ability to return to his rookie-year form. Analysts note that while Young has yet to achieve double-digit sacks, his performance in 2023 demonstrated enough promise to warrant this investment. The deal represents a significant commitment from the Saints, who have struggled to retain pass rushers long-term. Young expressed his gratitude on social media following the signing, indicating his excitement to continue with the team.
