Bengals: Ja’Marr Chase can be this year’s Justin Jefferson

Ja’Marr Chase and Justin Jefferson are like two peas from the same pod (literally, two players from the same college), so this comparison isn’t as zany as, say Trey Lance and Patrick Mahomes.

Chase is coming off a brilliant season debut in which he and the Cincinnati Bengals defeated Jefferson and the Minnesota Vikings in an OT thriller. He hauled in 101 yards on five catches with one touchdown, putting any concerns of his ball-dropping tendencies to bed.

After the game, Chase and Jefferson swapped jerseys, posing for a picture to commemorate their shared Tigers’ roots.
