Make sure to remember, he is only 26 years old... and this is the list of QBs he caught passes from... and now, hes getting dimes from Joe Burrow.

Between 2019 and 2023:

Breakdown by Quarterback (% of Receptions)

Drew Lock: 45.1%
Teddy Bridgewater: 16.4%
Geno Smith: 16.4%
Russell Wilson: 9.7%
Joe Flacco: 8.8%
Others (Rypien, Driskel, Allen): 3.6%

Through 2024:

Q

I listened to Zac's words. He said he is fast. He would not have been that specific unless it showed up during workouts or on tape. I agree he is young and I think he made a wise decision. However, he is going to have to work hard for targets with the talented group of WR's and TE's.

I like the competition it appears Zac has created this year from OL, CB, WR and TE. We may have most depth at these positions of any team in the NFL or certainly on par when you go 5 or 6 deep in WR room or 3 or 3 in TE room, same for CB as WR's.

Just saw it sounds like Browning is also haveing a good camp. Maybe the addition of Ridder lit a fire or maybe jjust 1 mor year of experience + throwing to deep skilled position group can't hurt
