    As a rookie he did have that one gorgeous deep play that he did perfectly. What stood out to me was that he did not turn his head too early, like most WRs tend to do.

    Taywan is a weird case. Hes so much better in the first couple of series than any other part of games. 62% of his 1stQ work are for 1st downs.. That's like having AB or TY for one quarter.

    I dont get why we dont keep feeding him thru games. We didnt have Walker last yr, Davis was the only guy that demands more attention than Taywan. Yet we used him for only 1/4 of games

    I think it is probably consistency. And the D probably figures Taywan out after the first and Taywan does not have enough tools in the bag to counter.

    My thought anyway

    Maybe his conditioning is not up to par either? I recall his rookie year he hit the rookie wall hard. Did next to nothing Dec 2017.

    I think he has the tools, he was doing it all at one point. Screens, sweeps, deep, shallow....

    Hes just wildly inconsistent it seems

    I remember too he was not picking up the playbook as a rook

    This is why I cant count on AJ to break onto the scene the way many are hoping. I do like AJ, just cant trust rookies early.

    I also see Vrabel babying AJ due to the hammy scare.

    I don’t see him as a catch monster but even if it’s 2-4 targets a game, they could be game changers. A lot of his big plays resulted in FG’s at minimum because he was getting chunk yardage.

    3 for 60 could be normal for him with a big play avg each game. And even when he’s not making catches teams would have to respect the deep ball when he’s on the field

    Mariota is actually good at the deep ball.
