Ja'Marr Chase Sets Unprecedented Five-Year Receiving Benchmark

He maintained top-tier output through Joe Burrow's early absence, with attention now shifting to an offseason push to repair the defense.

Overview

  • Chase became the first NFL wide receiver to log at least 80 receptions, 1,000 yards, and seven touchdowns in each of his first five seasons.
  • A two-touchdown performance in Cincinnati's 37-14 win over the Cardinals pushed him to seven receiving scores in 2025 and secured the milestone.
  • He also joined Randy Moss as the only players to record seven or more receiving touchdowns in each of their first five seasons.
  • Through 16 games this season, he has 117 catches for 1,316 yards, ranking second in the league in receptions and fourth in receiving yards.
  • Chase produced despite Burrow's turf-toe absence with Jake Browning and Joe Flacco under center, as the Bengals missed the playoffs for a third straight year and he downplayed breaking his 127-catch team record.
