Young represents Cincinnati's latest half-hearted attempt at bringing in competition for No. 3 receiver Andrei Iosivas, whose limitations become clear whenever Tee Higgins or Ja'Marr Chase misses time. At 6-foot-5, 218, the rookie out of Georgia will be another big body in a WR room full of them. Young never reached 500 yards in season across four years at Miami and Georgia, where he was routinely outproduced by other mid/late-round prospects like Will Mallory (2022), Xavier Restrepo (2023), Arian Smith (2024) and Zachariah Branch (2025). Young ran a 4.49 40 at the Combine, which is good for his size, but he skipped most of the other pre-draft workouts and doesn't have age (24 in July) working in his favor.
