Kenny Golladay led the NFL in touchdown receptions in 2019. He finished third in yards per reception, seventh in yards and made his first Pro Bowl. Golladay is one of the game’s young standout receivers.
Alas, he doesn’t stand out quite enough yet. Golladay failed to crack Touchdown Wire’s list of the top 11 outside wide receivers. Running mate Marvin Jones, who missed several games with a knee injury, also doesn’t make the list even though he’s a more complete receiver than Golladay.
This keeps with the theme from earlier this summer, where ESPN also omitted Golladay and Jones. Interestingly, Detroit gets acclaim from both as having an argument for the best duo; Golladay is even the featured picture for the honorable mentions here, though he’s not specifically noted by name.
If Golladay churns out another monster season in 2020, these sorts of omissions are going to look foolish.
