When the game was officially over, Ja’Marr Chase was moved to tears. The all-world rookie has more receiving yards than any rookie has ever had including the postseason, he’s the favorite to win Rookie of the Year, and he’s expected to go up against one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL in the Super Bowl.
Not many 21-year olds find themselves on this stage. For Chase, taking it all in was naturally overwhelming.
The Cincinnati Bengals moved past the Kansas City Chiefs for the second time in a month. An AFC North title and a Super Bowl berth came out of both games.
