Overview
- Chase said in recent media appearances that he is aiming for 22–23 receiving touchdowns this season and explicitly cited breaking Randy Moss’s single-season mark as the goal.
- He stressed that the touchdown target is a personal benchmark and that the Bengals’ priority remains winning a Super Bowl.
- Analysts call the record a long shot because Randy Moss’s 23 touchdowns from 2007 still stands and no receiver has reached 20 TDs since then.
- Chase’s peak came in 2024 with 17 receiving touchdowns and his production fell to eight TDs in 2025 when Joe Burrow missed significant time, showing that quarterback health and volume will be critical.
- If Chase pursues the mark successfully it would reshape public and Hall of Fame conversations about his career, and the key signs to watch this season are Burrow’s availability, target share, and how often the Bengals’ offense reaches scoring situations.
