Drafted with the 7th selection in the 2019 AFL draft from the Dandenong Stingrays in the NAB League, Young is the younger brother of the Western Bulldogs' Lachie Young.[1] He was considered to be one of the best kicks in his draft class.[2]

Young made his AFL debut for Fremantle in the long-delayed second round of the 2020 AFL season at The Gabba against Brisbane, as a late replacement for Nathan Wilson.[3]
