The Minnesota Vikings have somehow found four top wide receivers between picks 21-23 in the last 25 seasons. Rookie wide receiver Jordan Addison has tied Randy Moss for the most touchdown receptions in the first seven games of a career with six.
Addison not only ties Moss for the record, but they share it with eight other players, including Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase.
It’s been an insane night for Addison. Through the first half against the San Francisco 49ers, Addison caught four passes for 94 yards and two touchdowns.
It wasn’t just on short routes, he caught routes on all three levels of the field after Charvarius Ward stole an interception from Addison’s arms on the third play of the game.
This isn’t just a breakout game for Addison. This is a statement to the rest of the league. He has arrived and shown that he is going to be a force to be reckoned with for the next decade.
