Question

Taysom Hill last year caught 6 TD passes despite finishing the season with only 19 receptions for 234 yards. Who is the only active player who has finished a season with even more touchdown catches while finishing with even fewer receiving yards? Said player is a former first-round pick, and he’s a wide receiver.

Answer

John Ross, Cincinnati Bengals. In 2018, Ross caught 21 passes for 210 yards, with 7 TDs. In this arena, Mike Sellers is worth mentioning – a former fullback and H-back. For Washington in 2005, Sellers caught 12 passes for 72 yards, with 7 TDs. Also of note: the Faurias. Christian Fauria for New England in 2002 caught 27 passes for 253 yards, with 7 TDs. His nephew, Joseph Fauria, caught 18 passes for 207 yards and 7 TDs for the Lions in 2013.
