Question

JuJu Smith-Schuster at Denver scored on a 97-yard touchdown catch. He also scored on a 97-yard touchdown catch at Detroit last year. Who is the only other current player who has scored 2 TDs on receptions of 95-plus yards in his career?

Answer

Mike Wallace. Like Smith-Schuster, Wallace was drafted by the Steelers. He scored on a 95-yard catch against Arizona in 2011. Later in his career, playing for Baltimore, Wallace caught a 95-yard touchdown AGAINST the Steelers. According to numbers compiled by Pro Football Reference two other players have caught 2 passes of 95-plus yards during their career. You may remember John Taylor for the 49ers in 1989 and 1991. Gaynell Tinsley had 97- and 98-yard receptions for the Chicago Cardinals in the ‘30s.
