Ja’Marr Chase Reveals Major NFL Record He Wants to Break With Bengals
Ja'Marr Chase revealed he wants to break a specific NFL record during his next season with the Cincinnati Bengals.
As the NFL season approaches, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase has set his sights on breaking a major record. Chase entered last season as one of the top receivers in the league, finishing third with 125 receptions and fourth with 1,412 receiving yards. He was also tied for 11th in the nation with eight receiving touchdowns.
Chase recently expressed his desire to score 23 touchdowns in a single season, which would break the NFL record currently held by Randy Moss. Moss set the record in 2007 while playing for the New England Patriots, amassing 23 single-season receiving touchdowns alongside legendary quarterback Tom Brady.
To set the record, Chase would need to score at least 24 receiving touchdowns in the upcoming season. However, with 17 receiving touchdowns in 2024 already under his belt, the goal seems achievable. Chase's new quarterback, Joe Burrow, is also back in the lineup after recovering from an injury that limited his appearances last season to only eight games.
If Chase remains healthy throughout the season, he will have the opportunity to play one more regular-season game than Moss did when he set the record in 2007. Chase's journey to break the record begins when the Bengals host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on September 13th, following their training camp and preseason games.
