He is a FABULOUS player, no doubt. But he is given a massive amount of touches to be able to reach those milestones. How else does one reach them is a fair question. He definitely put in the work, but he benefited from a broken down #2 & a slowed down Dalvin Cook.
JJ was my fsvorite receiver in that draft, Higgins was my 2nd. JJ is the better player, but I don't know if he would be getting 180+ targets a year on tbe Bengals, for example.
He does get a shit ton of targets, that’s a fair point. And one I’ve actually brought up when comparing him to Chase.
We saw the same thing a couple years ago when Kupp won the triple crown.
