Week 2 NFL Power Rankings - 1-32 poll, plus each team's best rookie debut
24. Washington Football Team (1-0) - Best rookie debut: DE Chase Young

Young had one of the best debuts of any rookie in Week 1. Young recorded 1.5 sacks, forced a fumble and had a quarterback hurry. He also played the run well, once splitting a double-team to emerge for a stop. Young's presence was felt whenever he was on the field. He didn't always have success, but he did make a big impact and helped set up others to make plays. It's not just his burst; it's also his balance. He'll be good for a long time. -- John Keim
