Is Ja'Marr Chase the Most Valuable Player in Dynasty?
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase has the 11th-most receptions in NFL history by any player through their first six seasons. Remarkably, he has only played five years, meaning anything more than 59 catches in 2026 (fewer than half of what he's recorded in each of the previous two seasons) will earn him the record. Chase has had one of the most legendary starts to a professional career across all sports, and that is reflected by his standing as the overall number one player in RotoBaller's non-superflex dynasty rankings. Even with a Week 2 foot injury to Joe Burrow derailing Cincinnati's offense for much of the first half of the 2025 season, Chase was the one Bengals player who did not fully sink fantasy managers while Jake Browning was averaging 172 passing yards per game across his three starts. With competent quarterback play, Chase was his usual unstoppable self, reaching double-digit receptions in five of 14 games started by Burrow or Joe Flacco, while finishing with fewer than seven catches only four times. At only 26 years old, Chase has several years of prime play still ahead of him, and with both he and Burrow tied to Cincinnati through the 2029 season, his reign atop the dynasty rankings could be a long one.
