Young was signed by the Bears on Thursday.
Young will provide the Bears' backfield with a viable option in short-yardage and blocking situations. The veteran fullback has spent six years in Washington where he amassed 185 yards on 51 rushes and seven touchdowns to go along with 44 catches for 424 yards and six touchdowns. He's played at least 13 games in each of his seasons thus far in the league, while the only other option at fullback for the Bears prior to Young's signing was Paul Lasike.
