For the Chiefs to be able to drive the ball down the field, they need receivers that can catch the ball. I know, pretty simplistic.
He did not play that much but Josh Gordon did a terrible job of catching the balls that were thrown to him. He has to improve on that 35.7% catch rate and at least get it up in to the 60s range to have a hope of playing again.
Travis Kelce has a 70.8% career catch rate. Tyreek Hill has a 67.7% career catch rate. Byron Pringle has a 72% career catch rate. Mecole Hardmanhas a 67.7% career catch rate. Demarcus Robinson has a career 63.9% catch rate.
Marquez Valdes-Scantling can help with long drives, but he can also kill them. [Reply]
