Trey McBride Chasing NFL Tight End History
13 Nov
Summary
- McBride nears second place for most 7+ reception games.
- He is on pace to join an elite group of tight ends.
- McBride is close to breaking the single-season record.
Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride is poised to achieve remarkable historical milestones as Week 10 commences. He is on the cusp of securing second place all-time for games with seven or more receptions, with only Antonio Brown ahead of him.
McBride is also rapidly approaching a significant achievement in a different category. With 73 receptions this season, he is just two catches away from joining the rare company of tight ends like Todd Christensen, Jason Witten, Jimmy Graham, and Travis Kelce, who have recorded 75 or more receptions in four consecutive seasons.
Adding to his potential historic performance, McBride is five catches shy of surpassing former teammate Zach Ertz for the single-season NFL record for most receptions by a tight end within the first 10 games of a season.
Despite these individual accolades, McBride and rookie quarterback Carson Beck face a challenging matchup against the Rams. Key offensive players for the Cardinals are sidelined, making McBride the primary proven pass-catching threat. Nevertheless, these potential record-breaking moments highlight McBride's exceptional season and his importance to the Cardinals' offense.
