The Raiders placed Young on the reserve/retired list Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Young logged seven starts (11 appearances) for the Raiders last season, but the 34-year-old journeyman will now call it a career. He becomes the third player on Las Vegas' roster to retire this training camp, joining James Onwualu and Theo Riddick.

Young (knee) will not carry an injury designation into the team's Week 12 matchup against the Falcons, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Young has battled a knee injury for much of the past month and missed the Raiders' Week 12 matchup against the Chiefs. His return will bolster the pass protection for Derek Carr.

Young (knee) is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Chiefs.
EDGE Analysis
The 11-year veteran's absence is a notable blow for the Raiders, given that he normally starts at right tackle. His absence could allow Brandon Parker to slot into the starting lineup.

Young (knee) will be available for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Young was limited at practice all week, but the Raiders were presumably just erring on the side of caution. The 11-year veteran will take on his usual responsibilities at right tackle assuming he avoids any setbacks.

Young (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup against the Browns.
EDGE Analysis
The 11-year veteran started Week 7 against the Buccaneers with Trent Brown residing on the reserve/COVID-19 list, but he was forced to an early exit because of an in-game injury. With Brown dealing with a non-COVID illness, Young again earned the start for Week 8's matchup against Cleveland after being cleared to play Sunday morning, but he's been forced out midgame for a second consecutive week.

Young (knee) will play in Sunday's game versus the Browns.
EDGE Analysis
Young started last week's loss to the Buccaneers because Trent Brown was on the reserve/COVID-19 list, but Young ended up leaving early with a knee injury. He logged limited practices all week and has been cleared to play, but Brown has also been activated and could suit up Sunday depending on his conditioning. Whoever starts will have a tough matchup with Browns' defensive end Myles Garrett on the other side.

Young was forced out of Sunday's game versus the Buccaneers with a knee injury.
EDGE Analysis
Young started at right tackle because Trent Brown (illness) is on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Brandon Parker is expected to take over at the position with Young on the sidelines.

Young (groin) won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game versus the Bills, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Young will return to the lineup after missing the last two games. Starting left tackle Trent Brown (calf) is considered doubtful, so Young is expected to handle a starting role Sunday.

Young (groin) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots.
EDGE Analysis
Young was limited in practice all week before coming into Sunday's game questionable. Now that Young officially has been ruled out, Brandon Parker will be the only healthy depth tackle suiting up for Week 3.

Young (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's tilt with the Patriots.
EDGE Analysis
No surprise here, as Young was limited as questionable all week. His status will presumably be determined by how he is feeling closer to kickoff. He suffered the injury in Week 1 and is now in danger of missing his second straight contest.
