The Bengals’ star wideout had an all-time season.
Despite missing the NFL Playoffs, the Cincinnati Bengals had some superstar power at Paycor Stadium this season.
Joe Burrow had a historic season and is up for NFL MVP, Comeback Player of the Year, and Offensive Player of the Year. Trey Hendrickson led the NFL in sacks (17.5) and is up for Defensive Player of the Year. Ja’Marr Chase completed a Triple Crown at just 24 years old and is up for Offensive Player of the Year as well.
Chase, in particular, had an incredible season, leading the NFL in receptions (127), receiving yards (1,708), and touchdowns (17).
With Chase being only 24 years old, he should easily be the front-runner for OPOY, but Saquon Barkley will likely win the award instead.
But awards can’t take away from his historic season, and the Pro Football Hall of Fame made sure to get some historic pieces from Chase in 2024.

At 24, the @Bengals wide receiver earns the Triple Crown, the youngest to do so since Hall of Famer Don Hutson at 23 in 1936. His jersey, gloves and cleats are now on display at the Hall of Fame. @Real10jay__ | #RuleTheJungle pic.twitter.com/1VHSEmsp7f

Ja’Marr’s jersey and gloves are now in the Hall of Fame forever after earning the Triple Crown.
It is hard to believe he is only 24 and potentially has not even hit his true prime yet with the Bengals.
Bengals fans have so many reasons to be excited each year, including the best wide receiver in the NFL.
