Happy 24th birthday to Los Angeles Rams star wide receiver Puka Nacua!

Nacua burst onto the NFL scene his rookie year, setting all-time records in receiving yards and receptions (at the time). His numbers took a dip in his sophomore campaign which was shortened due to injuries, but he still racked up 990 yards and three touchdowns in 11 games, adding another 11 receptions for 141 yards in two playoff games.

Which brings us to today’s quiz. How many of the 34 rookies in NFL history to record 1,000 or more receiving yards in a season can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
