Cincinnati’s Ja’Marr Chase thinks he’s the most productive broad receiver within the league.
“I’m the most productive,” he instructed the media on Wednesday, forward of this week’s matchup towards the Minnesota Vikings and Justin Jefferson, his former school teammate and every other best WR. “I don’t really feel like we’re the 2 very best. I’m the most productive.”
Evaluating the 2 head-to-head, Chase has 89 receptions on 128 goals (69 % luck charge) for 1,092 yards and 7 general touchdowns up to now this season. Jefferson has 38 receptions on 56 goals (67 % luck charge) for 598 yards and 3 touchdowns. Of their complete careers, Chase has over 3,000 yards, averages 14 yards a elevate and has 29 general touchdowns. Jefferson has over 5,000 yards, averages 15 yards a elevate and has 28 general touchdowns.
To not point out, they had been teammates at LSU, the place they gained a countrywide championship in combination.
In fact, an issue will also be made that Tyreek Hill is the the NFL’s very best wideout. If we cross on numbers on my own, the Miami Dolphins superstar leads the league with 1,542 yards and 12 TDs, and is 2d in receptions (97).
Jefferson remains to be indexed as questionable going into this weekend in spite of telling the media he intends to play. Chase may be nonetheless designated questionable because of an ankle harm remaining week.
“It used to be loopy. I imply, simply our moments that we had rather than simply me, Joe [Burrow], and Ja’Marr, however to peer the issues that we have got, we’ve performed and what we’re doing within the league now could be outrageous,” Jefferson mentioned again in August. “To mention that we had been at the identical staff profitable the nationwide championship in combination and be a category for some of the very best offenses to ever play school soccer.”
