Kenny Young's athletic profile and coverage skills are best utilized in a Cover-3 match or two-high safety scheme that prioritizes speed and versatility at the linebacker position.
Initially a core special teams player and sub-package coverage linebacker in Year 1, with a ceiling to develop into a starting weakside linebacker capable of covering tight ends and running backs.
A traditional 3-4 two-gap scheme that demands inside linebackers to consistently take on and shed offensive linemen at the point of attack.
His athleticism and coverage ability make him a valuable asset in modern pass-heavy NFL schemes, though his size limits his effectiveness in run-heavy, downhill roles.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
