Lol... Just a reminder that of the 18 WRs drafted between 2019 and 2021 that have posted a 1k season, only 3 haven't gotten an extension or reached FA.
Ja'Marr Chase
Tee Higgins
Darnell Mooney
That's it. Mooney never reached 650 yards in any of his other 3 seasons so he very much feels like a one-of-these-isn't-like-the-other, but every other non-Bengals 1k WR got an extension before hitting FA. Good WRs aren't just playing out their entire rookie contracts, getting tagged and playing, and happily not getting extensions.
