Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase has had quite the start to his NFL career. In the preseason, Chase was quoted as saying that he was having trouble adjusting to the game and seeing the NFL ball since he hadn’t played football since 2019 at LSU. Chase may have been pulling a fast one over on us as he has exploded to start the season. He has 27 receptions on 41 targets for 553 yards and five touchdowns through six games so far this season. Next, he and the Bengals take on the Baltimore Ravens.
