With the second overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, the Washington Redskins selected Chase Young.
Young is a superstar pass rusher out of Ohio State. And he comes into the league with astronomical expectations.
What might be even crazier is that very few people believe he is overhyped. Most believe that Young is going to be an absolute problem in the NFL for the Redskins.
And he has done nothing to make anyone think otherwise so far. The 21-year-old has been seen working out on a few occasions. And every time it just seems to build the hype around him even more.
This time, it was the NFL's official Twitter account. They posted a video of the Redskins rookie working out, and well, he looks straight-up scary.
Chase Youngâs been putting in major work ahead of his rookie year. đȘ @youngchase907 (h/t @thecheckdown) pic.twitter.com/YQX6FWN1dg

In the video, you see the technique, handwork, footwork, a nice swim move, and a really good reaction time with a nice burst.
Oh, and in case all that wasn't impressive enough, Young really went the scary route. We are then treated to a short clip of the pass rusher boxing. With his 6'5âł, 264 lb frame, he's terrifying as it is. Now he's showing you that he's got some hands to go along with it.
The video then ends with some resistance running. Again this is just scary how easy it seems for him.
Young has lived up to all the hype so far before the season. It seems like he's done just about everything right and is only building up the legend around him even more.
It's all great, but can Young perform on the field? It's hard to bet against him. He has the perfect combination of size, speed, athleticism, and strength.
Massive things could be on the horizon for Young and Washington. And this video just serves as another reminder of why fans of the team should be excited about their future.
