“Again, not the answer you’re looking for, but I’m really not a look-back guy; I’m just telling you my truth,” Young said with a laugh on Wednesday. “Again, I’m super grateful. I’m grateful for where I’m at, I’m grateful to be a part of this team. I’m grateful for everything we have this year.
“And I couldn’t be more excited, to be able to go out with this group again on Sunday, so that’s really all my focus is.”
Young not looking back is no surprise; that’s how he’s wired. Although it’s fair for people to look back on that game, when he threw for three touchdowns and ran for two against the Falcons, with a makeshift lineup that included the same offensive line he’ll have this week.
While acknowledging the loss of Corbett and Hunt, who were placed on injured reserve Tuesday, he’s confident in the work Mays and Zavala can do.
“Obviously, just as a team as a person, I feel for Corb, feel for Rob, feel for the guys that went down,” he said. “Throughout the team, throughout the league, it’s a rough game, and obviously, there are those consequences. So just as people, I feel for them and everything that guys are going through.
“When it comes to Cade and guys stepping up, I’m super comfortable with everyone. Again, it’s a lot of experience in that room, especially experience in the system, experience here. That definitely is a luxury for us, having a lot of reps with Cade, other guys that they’re going to step up that have already played downs. I’m grateful for that, being able to have that experience and that confidence, so it’s next man up.”
