Washington Football Team pass-rusher Chase Young is feared to have suffered a torn ACL in Sunday's 29-19 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a source told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

"Potentially an ACL, but we'll know more tomorrow," head coach Ron Rivera conceded postgame, according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic.

The 22-year-old appeared to be in severe pain after going down in the second quarter. Young refused to exit on a medical cart before limping off the field with the help of team trainers, according to ESPN's Jenna Laine.

Young was spotted using crutches after emerging from the locker room during the second half, per the Washington Post's Nicki Jhabvala.

Washington selected Young with the No. 2 pick in the 2020 draft. He was named Defensive Rookie of the Year after recording 7.5 sacks and four forced fumbles. However, he's notched just 1.5 sacks during his second-year campaign.
