When discussing the premier wide receiving threats in the entire NFL currently, one of the first names to pop up is Cincinnati Bengals’ Ja’Marr Chase. In just 2 short seasons, Chase has solidified his standing in the league, becoming one of the premier receiving threats in the entire association.

After attending Archbishop Rummel High School, Ja’Marr opted to go to the University of Kansas but instead chose the LSU Tigers as his team. While he was not a regular starter during his true freshman year, he was promoted to the starting lineup in his sophomore campaign. He immediately exploded, leading the entire FBS in receiving yards. He also set the SEC record for most touchdowns, while also setting the record for most yards in a CFP Championship Game. His team went undefeated the entire way, and he was given the Fred Biletnikoff Award while also becoming a unanimous All-American. He chose to forego his junior year, choosing instead to focus on the NFL draft for the next year. While risky, his stock was at an all-time high due to his legend-making collegiate performance at such a young age.

The Cincinnati Bengals started Ja’Marr with the 5th-overall pick, reuniting him with his college quarterback Joe Burrow. While his career started off slow with struggles in the pre-season, he exploded onto the scene, becoming the youngest player in NFL history to catch four touchdown passes in his first three games. His dominance continued throughout the season as he set an NFL record for most receiving other than game by a rookie with 266. He also set the Bengals’ franchise accord for most receiving single season and finished with close to 1500 yards and 13 receiving touchdowns.

He was named the Offensive Rookie of the Year and was selected to the Pro Bowl while also making second-team All-Pro. For the season, however, he was just getting started as he would continue his stellar play into the postseason as well. In doing so, he became the youngest player in NFL history to record multiple 100-yard receiving games in a single postseason while also setting the record for most postseason receiving yards by a rookie ever. He continued his fantastic run in his sophomore campaign. Despite missing time due to injury, he still finished as the team's leader in receptions and yards and was again selected for the Pro Bowl.

When the Bengals fell short both times of their expectation, the future is bright for them. Chase, along with quarterback Joe Burrow, will look to finally cross the final hurdle and bring Cincinnati a Super Bowl.

What is Ja’Marr Chase’s Height?

Ja’Marr Chase has a recorded height of six feet or 1.83 meters. A little on the shorter side for a white receiver in the NFL, it has not hindered Chase’s ability. Instead, he has used his shorter frame for quick maneuverability, making ridiculous catches as the primary receiver. Ja’Marr Anthony Chase was born on March first, 2000 in Harvey, Louisiana. Close to home, he attended the Archbishop Rummel High School in Metairie, Lousiana.

While some predicted that his shorter frame might hurt him as his game would not translate as well to the NFL, Chase has silenced all doubters with a remarkable and consistent play through his first two seasons. However, with injuries starting to affect him right from his second season will the physicality prove too much for him will be a storyline to follow in the upcoming NFL season. So far, the verdict on Chase is stellar and he continues to impress at the highest level.
