Trenton Irwin: 'Striving For More Opportunities And More Games'
CINCINNATI — Bengals wide receiver Trenton Irwin has carved out a roster spot on this team with Ja'Marr Chase on the mend. He's quickly becoming a fan favorite after being a beloved locker-room presence since he joined the franchise in 2019.
Irwin was the subject of this week's episode of Behind The Stripes and discussed his mentality.
"Whenever I get those opportunities I got to do what I can with it and be ready for it," Irwin said about his first NFL touchdown. "You take those moments, you take those little victories you know, you celebrate them for a little bit, but then you let them go, and you just go do your same thing again."
Irwin scored the first touchdown of his career in the Bengals' 37-30 win over the Steelers. He now has seven catches for 99 yards and a score this season after getting called on as the third wide receiver with Chase out.
The Pittsburgh outing marked a career-high in catches (three) and yards (42). Receiver depth was a huge question mark for this team with Chase out, and Irwin became the answer.
"You can't really let success change your work," Irwin continued. "Just got goals for so much more. Just striving for more and more opportunities and more games."
It was clear through premiere teammates gushing about Irwin that he's one of those guys tying this squad together so tightly.
