Zion Young Ready to Learn From Trey HendricksonConfidence is one thing, but knowing you still have more to learn is just as important. For Zion Young, that balance is already there. He’s coming in with energy and a clear understanding of how he can grow.

When asked about playing alongside veterans like Trey Hendrickson, Young made it clear how he plans to approach it.

“I'm a big-time fan of Trey Hendrickson. I feel like with him as a vet, I feel like I'm very much so excited to learn from him and being around a lot more older guys on the defense. And I'm coming in as a young guy, so I'm coming in as a sponge. I'm excited to learn. I'm ready to learn. I'm willing to learn. I'm very much so coachable. And I thank God for the opportunity at the end of the day.”

That’s exactly what you want to hear. The tools are there; the next step is refinement.
