If they both stay healthy, I imagine in some order they both break it, with one obviously setting a new one.

Nabors needs 29 yards and Tracy needs 16 for them to be only the 3rd pair of Rookie Team mates to both have 1000 scrimmage yards and the 1st since 2006.

Nabors has to be the most unappreciated 1000 yard from scrimmage rookie in the history of the league.

All because he dared open his mouth too much after games.

Puka Nakua played in all 17 games, benefiting from the opportunity to catch passes from a quarterback who will likely receive Hall of Fame (HoF) consideration. In contrast, Malik Nabers will start 14 games(max), but played with a quarterback who is currently not considered good enough to be added to an active NFL roster, along with two other quarterbacks whose potential seems limited to being below-average backups.

As I mentioned before the season began, rookie wide receivers selected in the first round showcase their skills in their debut season, regardless of the quality of the quarterback throwing to them. Nabers, in particular, is a special talent. His ability to make plays, with limited supporting talent, speaks to his raw talent and potential. I'm incredibly excited to see what he can achieve when paired with a legitimate NFL starter at quarterback!

In just 13 games. He could be leading the league in Receptions and 3rd in Yards. Imagine if he was on a team that would hit him in stride. His YAC would be impressive too.

And he is doing it on an equally atrocious offense with Mac Jones as his QB.

crazy to think considering how awful we've been all year. but also gives you a glimmer of hope. if these 2 can keep it up and we can actually get a competent oline/qb, we COULD be pretty productive.
