Anybody want to see some wild stats? Look at the 1st 15 games:
Larry Fitzgerald – 55 catches, 744 yards, 8 TDs
DeAndre Hopkins – 48 catches, 767 yards, 2 TDs
Terry McLaurin – 63 catches, 980 yards, 7 TDs— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) September 18, 2020
Sometimes you see a statistic that makes you stop a second and consider what you just read.
That’s exactly what NBC Sports Washington’s JP Finlay provided us with on Friday morning, drawing a direct comparison between Washington’s Terry McLaurin, and Arizona’s top two receivers, DeAndre Hopkins and Larry Fitzgerald.
Through the first 15 games of their respective careers, all three were successful, but it’s clear that McLaurin was the most productive, hauling in the most catches for the most yards, though Fitzgerald scored one more touchdown than him.
It’s always impressive for a young player to be mentioned in the same breath as someone like Hopkins, who is arguably the best receiver in the NFL, but when you get in the same realm as Fitzgerald, who is an undisputed future Hall of Famer?
That’s next level.
