Ja'Marr Chase Having A Fantastic Week
3 years agoCincinnati Bengals first-round wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase has had a fantastic week with four straight impressive practices after the preseason game against the Washington Football Team (three dropped balls) and a rough Sunday practice. Chase had a really nice over-the-shoulder adjustment on a deep ball thrown from quarterback Joe Burrow on Thursday. It's nice to see that the 21-year-old has bounced back from his struggles with drops, and it'll be interesting to see how he performs in the final preseason game this weekend. The fifth overall pick has history with Burrow from their time at LSU, and his athleticism will give opponents problems. The Bengals are expected to pass plenty again in 2021, too, but Chase's camp issues should remind fantasy managers that ups and downs are likely in his rookie season. The talent is certainly there, but there is some bust potential for Chase at his current 24 ADP among pass-catchers.
