Over the last 19 NFL seasons, a rookie receiver has reached 1,000 yards receiving just 11 times. This year, two rookie receivers have a chance to reach the milestone as Titans’ A.J. Brown has 927 yards, while Washington’s Terry McLaurin sits at 919. The latter has been ruled out with a concussion this week, but Brown finds himself in a position to hit the 1,000-yark mark and help his team make the playoffs.
Brown has eclipsed 100 yards receiving in three of his last five games and is a big reason why the Titans are one win away from making the postseason after starting the year 2-4.
