Sad News: 49ers are without their leader

The San Francisco 49ers are coming off their worst loss of the season, which came against the Baltimore Ravens. They will seek to turn things around this week when they face the Washington Commanders, one of the league’s lowest teams.Chase Young, who was traded from the Commanders to the 49ers this season in a trade that helped enhance the already dominating 49ers pass rush as they make a run for the Super Bowl, is one of the underrated tales in a game that the 49ers should easily win.

Young was a first-round pick by the Commanders, so his trade in the midst of the season, when he had been performing well, came as a bit of a surprise. Young, on the other hand, appreciated the trade, going from one of the poorest to one of the greatest teams in the NFC and now having the opportunity to participate in crucial games.

“He’ll come out here and give it his all,” receiver Terry McLaurin said. “He’s going to be super juiced up to be back home and playing against his former team and everything.”

While Young said it was just another game, and he should be grateful to be on the greatest team in the NFC, playing a previous club is never just another game. Athletes, like everyone else, are human, and when you work for a company for years and then get traded, there is emotion associated with your time there. Even if he refers to it as a different game, there must be added drive to win.
