Chase not Practicing

Lamb:

2023  1,749 yards  12 TDs  13.0 yards per reception

2022  1,359 yards  9 TDs  12.7 yards per reception

Chase:

2023  1,216 yards  7 TDs  12.2 yards per reception

2022  1,046 yards  9 TDs  12.0 yards per reception

With Lamb signing a 4 year 136 million extension with 100 million guaranteed, a fair 4 year contract extension for Chase should be about 132 million with 95 million guaranteed.

Even known Bengals hater Kelsey Conway disagrees with you.

Ja’Marr Chase is better than CeeDee Lamb. If Lamb is getting 34 M per year, Chase deserves more.

While this deal getting done should accelerate timing on the Bengals / Chase negotiations, Justin Jefferson’s deal has always been the comp for Chase’s deal. https://t.co/DmCXPoY6a6

As for going solely off stats I’m sure Chase’s numbers would look even better too if he got to play the Commanders and Giants 4x a season.
