I feel this warmth and joy every single time the ball is in his hands because it ALWAYS ends in at least 3-4 extra yards beyond expected.
Watch out if he can become a better route runner and focus just a bit more on catching the ball rather than just getting upfield like a cannonball.

He's a really good route runner as it stands. Little/no wasted movement, good footwork and he's demonstrating every week that he knows how to use the space/time he's given.
There's really nothing not to like about him. And again, I think if we start throwing him some jump balls, he can do that Higgins shit because his body control is absolutely stellar and he's fearless at the catch point.
He's going to be a 1,200 yard receiver in relatively short order. People will still say "We need a legit #1 wide receiver" because they believe Tyreek Hills grow on trees, but I think we have a genuine top 15 guy on our hands here. That's a guy you can build your WR room around.
