Ja'Marr Chase was the fifth overall pick in 2021 and has quickly become one of the best wide receivers in the NFL.
Hall of Famers Terrell Owens and Randy Moss produced two of the most prolific careers in modern history. Their names have become synonymous with wide receiver greatness. But, neither of their names were mentioned when Chase was recently asked to list his all-time great wide receivers.
Sports Illustrated asked the Cincinnati Bengals star to name who would make his Mount Rushmore of wide receivers. He proceeded to name Calvin Johnson, Antonio Brown, Cooper Kupp and Jerry Rice.

Chase clarified that his exclusion of Moss and Owens was not meant to slight either of the pass-catchers.
"I'm not knocking them. I'd add Ocho in there too if I could," he said when asked about Moss and Owens. "There's only four."
