1. Difference maker/game wrecker (games with 100+ yards)
2. Contributor (games with 61-99 yards)
3.  Meh to disappointing (games with 60 or less yards).

Chase has played 34 games:
1.  11 games over 100 yards (32% of games)
2.  9 games as a contributor (26%)
3.  14 games 60 yards or under (41%)

Jefferson - 39 games:
1. 20 (51%)
2. 9 (23%)
3. 10 (26%)

Kupp - 27 games:
1. 18 (67%)
2. 7 (26%)
3. 2 (7%)

Hill - 39 games (closest comp to chase)
1. 13 (33%)
2. 11 (28%)
3. 15 (38%)

Adams - 39 games
1.  17 (44%)
2.  12 (31%)
3.  10 (26%)

My thoughts…

Kupp is ridiculous when healthy.  
Chase needs to flip flop his boom and “meh” weeks.  Minimally, let’s move the meh weeks to contributor weeks.  Having 60 yards or less 41%, or 7 games out of the year, isn’t going to cut it.  

I know there is a lot more to this (coaching, scheme, bad starts by the team), but every other player on this list has dealt with similar adversity.

Nice work on the stats, very interesting to see. That said, another variable is the Bengals have TB and Tee Higgins that take away some targets and have good games themselves. In my opinion, those other guys don't have the caliber of running mates that JaMarr has. We don't have to force feed him as much.
