JSN's chase for history

Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba is on a record pace in his third NFL season. Here's how his pace compares to Calvin Johnson's in 2012 (NFL single-season receiving yards record), Cooper Kupp's in 2021 (second-most receiving yards in a season) and DK Metcalf's in 2020 (Seahawks single-season receiving yards record). Hover over each line to follow the receivers' progression throughout the season (top number: games played, bottom number: total receiving yards).
