Young (groin) was a full participant during Thursday's practice, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Young has managed through the groin injury ever since he suffered the issue in Week 3 against Cleveland, so the fact that he's been cleared this early in the week is a positive sign. The rookie played in 92 percent of defensive snaps last week, so expect a similar workload for Young now that he's been cleared for Sunday's game against Dallas.

Young (groin) was limited in practice Wednesday, John Keim of ESPN NFL Nation reports.
EDGE Analysis
Young missed Week 4 with a groin injury, and the rookie second-overall pick evidently still isn't fully over that injury. He played 92 percent of Washington's defensive snaps last week, so barring a setback, Young should be out there Sunday against Dallas.

Young (groin) is listed as active Sunday against the Rams.
EDGE Analysis
After a one-game absence due to a moderate groin strain, Young is back in action after going through a DNP/LP/FP practice regimen this week. Through his first 10 quarters as a pro, the 2020 first-round selection has eight tackles and 2.5 sacks to his credit.

Young (groin) is expected to suit up for Sunday's game against the Rams, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
In Week 3, Young was knocked from the contest with what eventually was diagnosed as a moderate groin strain. After sitting out last Sunday, he followed a DNP/LP/FP practice regimen in advance of this Sunday. Notably, Friday's full practice likely swayed Washington to activate the 2020 first-round pick. Assuming he's active, Young will look to add to the 2.5 sacks that he logged in roughly the first 10 quarters of the season.

Young (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Young missed Week 4 and didn't practice Wednesday, but his return to limited participation Thursday gives him a shot to suit up in Week 5. The No. 2 overall pick has lived up to expectations when healthy, recording 2.5 sacks on 121 defensive snaps. Young could be headed for a game-time decision ahead of a 1 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday, with Ryan Kerrigan likely filling in as a starter if the rookie isn't able to play. Ryan Anderson also got extra snaps with Young out of the lineup last week.

Young (groin) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Young wasn't able to practice Wednesday and missed Week 4 due to his groin injury, so to see him back on the field is a notable step in the right direction. Still, Washington may hold out to see the rookie second overall pick go through full practice reps before clearing him for Sunday's game against the Rams.

Young (groin) didn't practice Wednesday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Young missed last week's loss to Baltimore with the groin injury he suffered in Week 3, and he'll need to ramp up his practice participation in a hurry to suit up Sunday against the Rams. The rookie second overall pick has seen his momentum grind to a halt due to this injury after racking up 2.5 sacks in his first two games.

Young (groin) won't play in Sunday's game against the Ravens, Kyle Stackpole of Washington's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Ron Rivera said the team is taking a "day-by-day" approach with Young, but it isn't a great sign that the rookie was unable to practice in any capacity this week. With DT Matthew Ioannidis (torn biceps) also suffering an injury last week and now expected to miss the rest of the season, Washington's impressive D-line has taken a major hit. It does sound like Young is expected back at some point in October, if not for Week 5 against the Rams.

Young (groin) is not practicing Thursday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Young looks to be trending in the wrong direction for Sunday's contest against the Ravens due to a moderate groin strain sustained Week 3. If the rookie first-round pick is indeed forced to miss Week 4, Ryan Kerrigan would be the favorite to receive increased defensive snaps.

Young was diagnosed Wednesday with a moderate groin strain and is expected to be sidelined for Washington's Week 4 game versus Baltimore, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Before tweaking his groin in Washington's Week 3 loss to Cleveland, the No. 2 overall pick was off to a fast start to his rookie season, totaling eight tackles, 2.5 sacks and one forced fumble. While Young was seemingly fortunate to avoid a Grade 3 groin strain, Washington is labeling him as week-to-week, suggesting that he could miss additional action beyond the Ravens game. Ryan Kerrigan will likely pick up more reps in Young's stead, serving as Washington's main edge rusher opposite Montez Sweat.
