It’s less than half of what the Bengals are paying for their receivers

Over the last four seasons, including 2019 when he didn’t play, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green has caught 187 of 320 targets for 2,736 yards and 18 touchdowns, averaging 14.6 yards per catch and 8.6 yards per target with a 58.6% catch rate. He has also fumbled four times in 35 games and has missed at least six games in three of those four campaigns, sitting out a total of 29 contests — nearly 50% of Cincinnati’s total games in that span.

Green, a probable Hall of Fame player prior to 2018 just based on the fact that he was named to seven of a possible seven Pro Bowl rosters, stands on much shakier ground when being compared to his elite peers.
