32 Days Until Training Camp: 32nd-Ranked Receiver Corps

The Green Bay Packers’ receiver corps has a combined 88 career receptions. Here’s a larger perspective.

GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Green Bay Packers have the least-experienced receiver corps in the NFL and, not surprisingly, the least-productive by one measuring stick.

Combined, every receiver on Green Bay’s 11-man depth chart has caught 88 passes in the NFL. Romeo Doubs, a fourth-round pick last year, caught 42 as a rookie. Christian Watson, a second-round pick last year, caught 41 as a rookie. Samori Toure, a seventh-round pick last year, caught five as a rookie.

No receiver corps has so few career receptions. In fact, each of the other 31 teams has at least one receiver with more career receptions than Green Bay’s combined total. Half the league – 16 of the 32 teams – has a receiver with at least 500 career receptions.

The Tennessee Titans’ receiver corps, which counts 227 receptions on its ledger, is the only club even in the same time zone from a team perspective.

In 2022, 10 receivers and 12 players overall had more receptions than Green Bay’s combined total of 88.

All three NFC North teams have a receiver with at least one bigger season on their resume, with the Vikings’ Justin Jefferson leading the NFL with 128 receptions last year, the Lions’ Amon-Ra St. Brown finishing seventh with 106 receptions last year and new Bears receiver D.J. Moore catching 93 passes for the Panthers in 2021.

Of course, all this could be much ado about nothing. The meager production has everything to do with lack of experience and nothing to do with lack of talent. Big seasons by Watson and Doubs this season would change the label from young and unproven to young and bound for stardom.
