Cleared to play vs. Detroit
Young (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Lions, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Analysis: Young sat out Friday's practice after being limited in the first two sessions of Week 15 prep due to a lingering knee injury. That appears to have been a maintenance day for the third-year edge rusher, who has been given the green light to play in Sunday's home tilt. Young has tallied 1.0 sacks in back-to-back games, and his 11.0 sacks (through 13 regular-season games) is tied with Danielle Hunter and Josh Sweat for fifth most in the NFL.

Limited again Thursday
Young (knee) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Analysis: Young logged consecutive limited practices as he continues to nurse the knee injury he has dealt with since Week 13. If past practice logs and game participation are any indicator, the outside linebacker should be available for Sunday's game against the Lions. Since being added to the injury report with the issue, Young has logged 12 tackles (7 solo), including 2.0 sacks, through two games and will likely add to that total in Week 15.

Still nursing knee injury
Young (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's walkthrough practice, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
Analysis: Young has been able to play through a knee injury during the Rams' last two games, so he should be available to play Sunday against the Lions barring a setback. The third-year edge rusher has tallied 12 tackles (seven solo), including 2.0 sacks, over his last two games.

Rests ahead of Sunday
Young (knee/NIR - rest) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Young managed to log consecutive limited practices Wednesday and Thursday before missing Friday's session for veteran rest. The outside linebacker is set to suit up for Sunday's game with full rest and will look to add to his total of 10.0 sacks.

Limited participant, should be fine
Young (knee) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Head coach Sean McVay said he expects Young to play in Sunday's game versus the Cardinals. Young is tied for eighth in the league with 10.0 sacks through 12 games, and his 61 tackles are just one shy of his career high. The Tennessee product is having an outstanding season, and he has an intriguing opportunity this week because Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett has been sacked 26 times through seven starts.

Records first sack since Week 7
Young recorded eight tackles (five solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: The Rams' starting outside linebacker was able to burst through the line to sack Bryce Young late in the second quarter. Young also recorded his most tackles since Week 6, and his 10.0 sacks put him in a tie for eighth in the league with Tuli Tuipulotu. He'll look to add to his totals against Jacoby Brissett and the Cardinals in Week 14.

Expected to play
Young (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Analysis: Despite logging only a single limited practice in Thursday's session, Young is expected to suit up for the Rams' Week 13 contest. The starting outside linebacker has not missed a game this season and will look to add to his 53 total tackles, including 9.0 sacks, this Sunday.

Likely playing in Week 13
Young (knee) won't practice Friday but is expected to play in Sunday's matchup against the Panthers, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
Analysis: Despite Young downgrading from a limited practice session Thursday to a DNP on Friday, he's expected to suit up for the Week 13 contest. The third-year pro from Tennessee has appeared in all 11 of the Rams' games this season, recording 53 total tackles, including 9.0 sacks, and one forced fumble. If active as expected, Young will likely start opposite Jared Verse to form Los Angeles' top edge-rush duo.

Young (knee) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

No practice Wednesday
Young (knee) did not practice Wednesday, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
Analysis: Young played a normal allotment of snaps in Sunday's win over the Buccaneers, so it's unclear when the injury occurred. His status for a Week 13 matchup against the Panthers is now in question.
