GAME PLAYER
Young’s second-half win put him back on top of the hill against a subpar Arizona defense. Last year’s No. 1 overall pick completed 17 of 28 passes for 158 yards, two touchdowns, four big catches and zero turnover-worthy plays. Young added five carries for 67 yards and a score on the ground while picking up three first downs.
