Literally every data point we have through 20+ career NFL games suggests otherwise.
He has one standout play as a receiver. One. The time he got Derwin James on 3rd down. Literally everything else he's ever done has been on busted coverages or guys falling down.
He made a nice catch on a perfectly thrown back-shoulder throw last week but y'know what? So did 3 other slapdicks for the Jets last night. On the rushing attempts you get a whole lot of risk for a reward of like 8 yards because he doesn't have the speed/slipperyness to break through the line and keep going.
He's a poor option as a gadget guy. This is a guy who STILL looks like he's on the same career arc as Dexter McCluster. And the tools aren't much different either.
