Young Puts Stamp On No. 2 QB Job As Eagles Beat Jets 24-14

Vince Young moved the Philadelphia Eagles’ offense all night against the New York Jets until he was stopped by the only thing that could do so: his right hamstring. Young led the Eagles on two scoring drives against Jets backups before leaving with a strained hamstring late in the second quarter in a 24-14 preseason victory Thursday night. “I think he’s going to be OK, from what I understand,†Eagles coach Andy Reid said. “We’ll MRI him just to make sure. We’ll see how he does after that.†With Philadelphia’s new $100 million man resting up for the regular season, Young got the start and certainly showed he’s more than capable of being Michael Vick’s backup. Young was 15 of 23 for 193 yards and a touchdown pass to Chad Hall, but was hurt when he rolled out on a fourth-down play against the Jets (2-2). He was about to run for the first down when his right leg locked up and he ended up throwing the ball incomplete as he crumpled to the turf. “He’s done a nice job and he would have scored on the last one,†said Reid, who added that he considers Young his No. 2 quarterback. “That was a run-in right there.â€
