Rams face decision on Byron Young's contract extension timing

Byron Young is entering the final year of his rookie deal with the Los Angeles Rams. With one Pro Bowl selection and a proven track record, Young is in line for a contract exceeding $100 million following a similar deal given to Nick Herbig by the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Rams must decide between a three-year deal, providing flexibility, or a four-year extension, which would extend Young's tenure past his 30th birthday. The Rams' financial situation and their plans for other players, including Myles Garrett and Trent McDuffie, will influence their decision regarding Young's future with the team.
