2019
Austin Ekeler
92 Receptions, 993 Receving Yards, 8 Receiving TD's, 10.8 YPC.
Aaron Jones
49 Receptions, 474 Receiving Yards, 3 Receiving TD's, 9.7 YPC.
Now, I now stats aren't the end all be all, but this differential is too much to ignore. You can't say Aaron Jones is a better receiving back until he at least comes close to these numbers.
Austin Ekeler more than doubled him in yards and TD's, and fell just short of doubling him in receptions. He also averaged a full yard more per reception.
Aaron Jones may very well make some unbelieveable catches, but he doesn't do it enough to crack his way into the McCaffrey, Kamara, Ekeler tier.
