CINCINNATI — The Athletic's Mike Jones canvassed NFL scouts, execs, and more all over the league to get their top players age 25 and under. Bengals star Ja'Marr Chase checked in at No. 3 as he enters his age 24 season.

Chase has not practiced with the team in full drills once since the end of the 2023 season as he searches for a new contract.

"Despite Joe Burrow’s injury-shortened 2023, Chase still delivered his third consecutive 1,000-yard season," Jones wrote."He and (Justin) Jefferson belong to an extremely exclusive club of game-changing wide receivers."

Chase has wowed crowds all decade as he and the Bengals continue the pursuit of a Super Bowl back up again next month.
