We are just a few days away from Super Bowl LVI between the Cincinnati Bengals and the Los Angeles Rams. On Monday, players and coaches alike were interviewed virtually to discuss the upcoming matchup.
Former LSU wide receiver and now Bengals star receiver, Ja’Marr Chase was asked about some of the other rookie wideouts and went on to specifically mention former Alabama standouts DeVonta Smith and Jaylen Waddle.
Chase would go on to bring up Smith’s accomplishment of passing Desean Jackson’s Eagles rookie record for most receiving yards and also how Waddle would break the NFL record for most receptions by a rookie.
Here is the full clip from Twitter.

Even though Chase, Waddle, and Smith were rivals in college, game respects game.
