Antonio Brown Becomes 2nd-Fastest Player To 10,000 Receiving Yards

It’s small solace right now, but historical moments ought to be marked, and Antonio Brown did reach a historical moment, both in his personal career and in NFL history. It took him into overtime to achieve it, but with his 93 yards on nine receptions today against the Cleveland Browns, the ninth-year wideout reached 10,000 receiving yards in his career.

That landmark achievement was unlocked in just 116 career games. Only one man has ever reached 10,00 receiving yards in fewer games, and that was a man they call Megatron. Calvin Johnson surpassed the 10,000-yard mark in his 115th game.
