Conner, JuJu Combined To Produce 85.5 Fewer Yards Per Game In 2019 Than In Previous Season

Between the two of them, James Conner and JuJu Smith-Schuster nearly combined for 3000 yards from scrimmage in 2018 in 29 combined games. Conner had roughly 1000 rushing yards with another 500 receiving in 13 games, while Smith-Schuster caught 111 passes for over 1400 yards.

Last season, put up less than half of his total yardage, finishing the season with just 715 yards from scrimmage. He had under 500 rushing yards and just 251 receiving yards in 10 games. Granted, that’s a lot of the season to miss, and he also missed time within those games.

Likewise, Smith-Schuster went from a 16-game season to a 12-game season due to injuries.
