With Brees he was at 80% (12 of 15 targets). After the injury, it's 82.5% (33 of 42 targets). The NFL record he set last year was 85%, so not far off that prolific pace. And it's better than his career average of 77.5%. Just to put that into perspective, no one has even approached 70% for their career as a WR. Fitzgerald 63.9 A Brown 65.5 Julio Jones 63.7 Hopkins 59.1 OBJ 62.4 Tyreek Hill is the closest thing to him at 68.8%. He's in the land of the running backs, and actually beating some of the all time greats at catching the ball out of the backfield. Faulk 75.7 Gurley 73.4 Bush 72.1 Bell 79.0 Kamara 79.7 What we are witnessing with Thomas was thought unfathomable. But it's happening. |
