FILE - In this Feb. 26, 2020, file photo, Washington Redskins head coach Ron Rivera speaks during a press conference at the NFL football scouting combine in Indianapolis. This is supposed to be the Redskins' Chase Young draft. The chance to select the Ohio State pass-rusher with the second overall pick is a possible silver lining of a 3-13 season. Young is considered the top defensive player available after putting up 46 tackles and 16 1/2 sacks last year. New Redskins coach Ron Rivera cautioned to wait to see what happens with the No. 1 pick first. He has also taken calls from other teams about trading down. (AP Photo/Charlie Neibergall, File)
