The 'NFL rookie 1,000-yard receivers' quiz

Created on July 17, 2025 | Total tries: 19914 | Average Score: 22.6 out of 34 (67%) | Quiz FAQ

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson turns 25 years old on July 22, and if he wants he can now throw a heck of a party.

The New York Jets locked up the services of the 2022 AP Offensive Rookie of the Year through the 2030 season with a four-year, $130 million contract extension with $90 million guaranteed. Despite the turmoil at quarterback (and pretty much everywhere else) during his Jets tenure, Wilson has still been incredibly productive in his three years in East Rutherford. His 279 receptions are seventh all-time for a player through the first three years of his career, while his 3,249 yards are 22nd.

Which brings us to today's quiz. In NFL history, 30 players have totaled 1,000 or more receiving yards in their first season in the league. How many of the 30 can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
