Young (knee) didn't participate in the Rams' practice Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Young is still working through the knee soreness that he sustained during last week's divisional-round win over the Bears. However, despite the injury, Sean McVay previously said that he still expects the 27-year-old to be available for Sunday's conference championship game versus the Seahawks.

Young experienced soreness in his knee Sunday night, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Young's defensive snap share was just 43 percent in Sunday's divisional-round win over Chicago, though it's not clear if the knee issue had anything to do with his reduced time on the field. He still made an impact with five tackles (one solo) and a QB hit. Rams head coach Sean McVay said Monday that he doesn't expect the injury to impact Young's availability for Sunday's matchup versus Seattle in the NFC Championship Game, though it still bears watching the pass rusher's practice participation throughout the week to get a read on how bothersome the issue is.

Young recorded 82 tackles (45 solo), including 12.0 sacks, and forced a fumble in 17 games during 2025.
EDGE Analysis
The durable Young, who hasn't missed a game in his three seasons in the league, took another step towards becoming one of the league's elite linebackers in 2025, finishing in a tie for eighth with Josh Sweat and Will Anderson for most sacks, and earned his first career Pro Bowl nod in the process. It looked like it would be much more than 12 sacks early in the season, as Young recorded at least half a sack in each of the Rams first seven games, before cooling off and recording just three sacks over the final ten contests. Young will be entering the final year of his rookie deal in 2026, and will look to continue his upward progression before either signing an extension with the Rams or looking for a big payday in free agency.

Young (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Lions, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
EDGE Analysis
Young sat out Friday's practice after being limited in the first two sessions of Week 15 prep due to a lingering knee injury. That appears to have been a maintenance day for the third-year edge rusher, who has been given the green light to play in Sunday's home tilt. Young has tallied 1.0 sacks in back-to-back games, and his 11.0 sacks (through 13 regular-season games) is tied with Danielle Hunter and Josh Sweat for fifth most in the NFL.

Young (knee) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
EDGE Analysis
Young logged consecutive limited practices as he continues to nurse the knee injury he has dealt with since Week 13. If past practice logs and game participation are any indicator, the outside linebacker should be available for Sunday's game against the Lions. Since being added to the injury report with the issue, Young has logged 12 tackles (7 solo), including 2.0 sacks, through two games and will likely add to that total in Week 15.

Young (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's walkthrough practice, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Young has been able to play through a knee injury during the Rams' last two games, so he should be available to play Sunday against the Lions barring a setback. The third-year edge rusher has tallied 12 tackles (seven solo), including 2.0 sacks, over his last two games.

Young (knee) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Head coach Sean McVay said he expects Young to play in Sunday's game versus the Cardinals. Young is tied for eighth in the league with 10.0 sacks through 12 games, and his 61 tackles are just one shy of his career high. The Tennessee product is having an outstanding season, and he has an intriguing opportunity this week because Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett has been sacked 26 times through seven starts.

Young recorded eight tackles (five solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
The Rams' starting outside linebacker was able to burst through the line to sack Bryce Young late in the second quarter. Young also recorded his most tackles since Week 6 in the contest, and now sits in a tie for eighth with Tuli Tuipulotu with 10.0 sacks on the season. He'll look to add to his totals against Jacoby Brissett and the Cardinals in Week 14.
