Rams' Byron Young: Misses practice Wednesday
Young (knee) was a nonparticipant at the Rams' "jog-through practice Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Young appears to have left the team's Week 13 win over the Browns a little worse for wear, missing the first estimated practice session of the week with a knee injury. The linebacker will have two more chances to return to the field ahead of Friday's final injury report prior to their Week 14 matchup with Baltimore.

Rams' Byron Young: Records strip sack
Young recorded six tackles (three solo), including a sack and an additional quarterback hit, and a forced fumble during Sunday's 26-9 victory against the Cardinals.
The rookie linebacker iced the game for the Rams in the fourth quarter, getting in the backfield and sacking Joshua Dobbs just before he released a pass, resulting in a forced fumble that was recovered by safety Quentin Lake. Young has another tantalizing matchup in Week 7 against an anemic Steelers offense that has seen Kenny Pickett absorb 14 sacks through five games this season.

Rams' Byron Young: Secures a sack
Young recorded five tackles (three solo), including a sack and an additional quarterback hit, during Sunday's 30-23 loss to the 49ers.
Young's sack of Brock Purdy on third down helped kill a 49ers drive at midfield, and he was a highlight of the defense as he consistently brought pressure to the young signal-caller. The Rams get a Bengals offense in Week 3 that will either rely on a hobbled Joe Burrow (calf) or Jake Browning behind the helm, and Young will look to make it three straight games with at least half a sack to start the season.
