Fourth-round rookie has earned Burrow's trust; size advantage on contested catches.

Fourth-round rookie wide receiver has already earned the trust of QB Joe Burrow despite joining a team with an elite receiver tandem; Young attributes this early rapport to mastering the playbook, saying "the plays just started coming after that." At 6-foot-3, he emphasizes his size advantage on contested catches, noting "those 50-50 balls that might be contested balls to other people really is pretty easy for me," positioning himself as a red-zone and high-point threat in the Bengals offense.
