He wasn't the inventor of the griddy but he definitely was a pioneer of it. Most people really started doing that celebration watching him do it after every touchdown.

1:33 the griddy was invented by allen “griddy” davis who is a friend of ja’marr chase and he showed it to justin and they would do it together at LSU before bringing it to the NFL. Justin popularized it for sure since most people (incorrectly) credit him for inventing it

His peers voted him the best WR in the league, and 2nd out of all players behind only Patrick Mahomes. It's funny if you go back and read JJ's scouting report coming out of college, the "experts" were all saying he'd never be more than a slot receiver and couldn't beat coverage playing on the outside. They could not have been more wrong.

[@DNReacts]

Could not have been more wrong! What a player!

The only thing that sucks about watching WR highlights is that the usual broadcast angle doesn’t show you much of the WRs route running ability and you really only get to see the catch and the running after that. Route running is one of the things Jefferson excels at. I recommend y’all watch some videos focused on route running and it’ll give you a much better idea of all the work it takes just to get open.

[@DNReacts]

I think we will do! We are interested in seeing what it takes to get on the end of one of those passes!

Agreed. Also check out Jefferson at LSU. Him, Joe Burrow, and Ja'Marr Chase on the same team was unfair.

I’m a Vikings fan and JJ is a generational talent. So fun to watch play

[@rorys3980]

“He must have good footwork” Maybe the best, it’s either him or Davante Adams for route running. A lot of these highlights don’t show how he’s setting up routes, but he’s among the best at that. He has crazy long elastic limbs where he can cut violently, and his ability to make grabs through contact is among the best in the league as well. Most have him as the best receiver, he’s only played 3 years so it’s rare to put a young guy like that up there, but he’s breaking records to start a career. He had 1,400 yards as a rookie (4th in the NFL), 1,616 in his 2nd year (2nd in the league), 1,809 in his 3rd year (1st). No player in history is even close to his 4,825 yards through 3 seasons (Randy Moss is 2nd with 4,163), and there are only a handful of receivers that have had more yards over a 3-year stretch at any point in their careers than he has in his first 3 seasons (Calvin Johnson, Antonio Brown, Julio Jones, Jerry Rice).

[@1cuno]

Hunter Renfrow & Stefon diggs are in that convo as well

[@prodarchangel]

Justin Jefferson and Jamarr Chase created that dance in LSU. That’s why he does it so much. That’s their signature

It was actually neither of them. It was started by a high schooler who was then friends with Ja’Marr later in high school. Ja’Marr then popularized the dance at LSU and showed JJ

[@Polyeith]

12:19 iirc looking at the replay, jefferson never actually stepped out of bounds, the ref just made a bad call. They really need to let those kinds of plays play out since once they mark him out that's it; they cant go back & give him the touchdown.

that catch HAS to be best of last season - not only in terms of the physical catch itself, but in the do-or-die 4th and 18 situation the stakes couldn't be higher outside the playoffs - made their unbelievable win possible

Jefferson, in my opinion, is the second best WR in the league. Many would say he is the best, understandably, as he has produced better than any receiver ever has through three seasons. I say he’s number 2 because he was the number 2 WR at LSU behind a younger Ja’Marr Chase. Sort of like DK Metcalf & AJ Brown; Brown being the Chase in this scenario

Fun fact: Justin Jefferson holds the NFL record for most 100+ receiving yard games in the first four years of his career, and he's only played 3 seasons.

[@jeremiahguenther584]

Fun Fact: He basically created the Griddy dance. He and Jamar Chase who both were apart of that 2019 LSU team both started doing the dance that season. Now it’s everywhere. Also they are both considered top 3 WRs in the entire league right now arguably. And also Jamar Chase was the 5th overall pick a draft or two ago to the bengals, to team him up again with his college QB, Joe Burrow. All 3 are at the pinnacle of their positions in the league right now.

[@sethp26]

10:59 that is the best catch of all time in my opinion. OBJ had the more impressive lean back, but it being contested that way makes jefferson's more impressive to me. such a beast

[@stevedietrich8936]

I'd say that Jefferson is probably the best WR in the league at present. Jefferson excels because he has good speed, great hands, and fantastic agility and cutting ability. You mentioned Moss in the video. Moss was a freak, 6 foot 4, perhaps the fastest player in the league when he played, and a great leaper. It's really hard to say where Jefferson ranks all-time as he has only been in the league for 3 years. Let his career play out for a bit longer.

[@norskynorsk3577]

Jjetas is number 8

[@MichaelPK03]

Jefferson, Hill, Kelce. Those are the best offensive receiving players in the game today. Now you have done a Moss video. He was a class above the guys in todays game. He was Tyreek Hill but at 6”4

[@skinfluithero4885]

That was in my opinion the best catch of all time considering if he didn’t make it they lose.

[@linestparfait1680]

Great route runner, great hands, great body control, but what makes him elite is his ability to be patient and react so late when the ball is in the air on contested throws where the defender has no time to react off of jeffersons body language in anticipation for a pass.
