Against Auburn he easily could have had 8-10 receptions and against Utah easily could have had 5-8 and one could have been a huge gainer if not for the poor vision of Browning.
It also becomes apparent really quickly that they limited the route tree that he ran and virtually only used him as a decoy on shallow crosses to try and pick a WR open. It is a shame when you watch them and realize how poorly utilized he was.
Only shame for him. He may have been a 2nd top 10 ten pick if utilized correctly and not a Bengal.
They more I see and read bout the guy, the more I think we made a great trade back to get him and 2 other picks, 1 a 4th rounder.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
