The 'Receiving-yards leaders by NFL season' quiz

The New England Patriots went 4-13 in 2024 with one of the worst offenses in the NFL. They were last in the NFL in passing yards-per-game (171.6), second-to-last in total yards-per-game (291.9) and scored the third-fewest points-per-game (17). 

As a result, Patriots brass decided an immediate change was necessary to help develop their presumptive franchise quarterback Drake Maye. One of the moves they made was to bring in veteran wide receiver Stefon Diggs, who has officially been cleared to return from the ACL tear that cost him all but eight games in his one season in Houston. 

Which brings us to today's quiz. At 31 years old and coming off of a major injury, Diggs may not be a 1,500-yard receiver for the Patriots like he was in 2020 with the Bills anymore, but he should be a valuable asset for a young team. With that being said, How many of the NFL receiving leaders during the Super Bowl era can you name in six minutes?

Good luck!
