The 33rd Team Ranks Bengals Receiver Duo of Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins Top-Five All-Time

Cincinnati has arguably the best duo in the NFL.

CINCINNATI — The 33rd Team's Elliot Kalb came up with his 11 greatest receiver duos in NFL history and placed Ja'Marr Chase/Tee Higgins at No. 5 all-time ahead of duos like Marvin Harrison/Reggie Wayne and Isaac Bruce/Torry Holt.

He did it with some future projecting in mind for a pair of players at ages 23 and 24.

"What the heck, I’ve seen enough of these two to take a chance and predict that these guys will be one of the top wide receiver duos of all time," Kalb wrote. "Ja’Marr Chase was limited to 12 games last season (the Bengals played 16 — not 17 games — and Chase missed four games with a hip injury). Despite this, Chase finished with 87 catches for more than 1,000 yards. He was on his way to haul in 116 receptions for 1,400-plus yards.

"Tee Higgins is a perfect complement. He had a pair of touchdowns in Super Bowl LVI and a game-tying touchdown reception in the second half of last year’s AFC title game. You get the feeling that one of these years — real soon — Joe Burrow and Chase and Higgins are going to put it all together. Chase is 23. Higgins is 24. Give these guys a couple of years."

Chase/Higgins was one of five duos to each hit 1,000 receiving yards last season alongside A.J. Brown/Devonta Smith, Mike Evans/Chris Godwin, Tyler Lockett/D.K. Metcalf, and Tyreek Hill/Jaylen Waddle.
