All aTwitter: 7 June 2023 - Chase Young isn’t getting traded; Daron Payne looks beastly

Interesting to see - obviously not all knee injuries are the same - Chase Young injured in November 2021 has a pretty substantial knee brace and Phidarian Mathis (#98) in the video below injured his knee in September of 2022 and is without any extra support pic.twitter.com/ZIUmVnkWHz

Young played in his first practice today and didn't participate in much more than half the reps if that. He looked spry, but Im gonna need more than one practice session before declaring him back no matter what anyone tells me. https://t.co/JCQPlZMELQ

1. I don't believe this to be true.

2. The same rumors (almost verbatim) swirled around Daron Payne last season.

3. Coming off an injury, Young's value is at its lowest point.

This is a non-story to me. Let #99 cook. We need him to produce, now and in the future. https://t.co/fDHEIwxrk0

Lots of people creating headlines about the Commanders trading Chase Young are pointing to a report from Albert Breer whose report calls such a trade "unlikely".

What matters more for Ron Rivera - a productive 2023 season for Chase Young or an extra 2024 draft pick when he might not be the coach?

Chase Young has been disruptive today on the edge. He looks good and showing no signs of rust. #httc #NFL

My thoughts after OTA’s today:
1. Sam is consistent. Arm is good and doesn’t have many bad throws
2. EB is a talker and has increased the tempo and professionalism of the offense. It’s HIS offense.
3. Chase looked explosive. He isn’t going anywhere.
4. Forbes is quick.

5. The wide receiver room is deep. Mline is in serious trouble of making the 53
6. Cosmi and Charles look good at guard.
7. Expect more high tempo. #HTTC

People's eyes will naturally gravitate towards Young.

But you know who looked quick?
Payne.

That's a big boy moving fast https://t.co/MN0W87grHR

Cole Turner spoke says he is down in body fat 14% to 9%. Also stated he focused alot on singular muscle groups such as the hamstring which plagued him last season. Turner also mentioned wanting to get better at getting in and out of routes “moving like a WR”

Amazing visit today with the NFL @Commanders.

One of the first things I asked was “how many of you have seen me in college?” I think at least a dozen hands went up

Grateful for the opportunity and those who made it happen. #SetTheExpectation https://t.co/dZnjcJuANu
