Chase Young has had about as good of a rookie season as you can ask out of the No. 2 overall selection. The former Buckeye was relentless in his first season with the Washington Football Team.

And now, Young is ready for Washington’s challenge against Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the Wild Card round of the NFL playoffs.

Leaving the field after Washington defeated Philadelphia on Sunday, Young could be heard saying, “Tom Brady, I’m coming! I want Tom!”

Obviously, that’s going to get plenty of attention. Because as strong of a season as the rookie defensive end has had in Washington, Brady is still a six-time Super Bowl champion and has played in the football’s biggest game nine times.

If there’s anything Brady doesn’t need, it’s added motivation. And after seeing this clip, you can bet the Hall of Fame quarterback will be well prepared for this matchup.

Tampa Bay ended the season with an 11-5 record while Washington backed into the playoffs at 7-9. The game is scheduled for Saturday, Jan. 9 with kickoff set for 8:15 p.m. on NBC.
