Julio Jones
I don’t think anyone needs a reason to watch out for Julio Jones. The guy is an absolute beast of a receiver. There’s a reason that he is constantly in the conversation of the best receiver in the game.
Jones literally has it all. He can run routes, has great hands, possesses great speed and size, and athleticism beyond description. Jones currently leads the NFL in receiving yards with 502 through four games. For you stat geeks out there, that’s on pace for 2,008 yards for the season, which would break Calvin Johnson’s 2012 record.
The only hiccup for Jones this season is that he hasn’t found the end zone yet in 2018. When Atlanta gets in the red zone, teams obviously play very close attention to Jones. Him and Matt Ryan just haven’t found each other yet.
This could be dangerous for Pittsburgh. It’s only a matter of time until Jones finds paydirt, and the Steelers had a difficult time maintaining John Brown on Sunday night. This is a huge task for the secondary.
