Chase has posted big-time numbers on Sunday yet again for Cincinnati, hauling in 10 catches for 129 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Chase did some historic damage last year in his rookie season, hauling in 81 catches for 1,455 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns. It was a record-setting season for the uber-talented receiver and it’s safe to say, he’s just getting warmed up. Chase is destined to be one of the greatest receivers to ever play the game.
According to the On3 Consensus Rankings for the 2018 cycle, Chase was ranked as the No. 7 receiver in America and the No. 49 overall prospect in the country. He played in the Under Armour All-American Game. During his prolific career for Archbishop Rummel High School (Harvey, La.), Chase hauled in 115 catches for 2,152 receiving yards and 30 touchdowns.
