Ja’Marr Chase joins exclusive club with milestone TD before 27th birthday
Published:
As Ja’Marr Chase’s NFL career progresses, the former LSU wide receiver seemingly can’t stop entering the league’s record books.
And during Cincinnati’s matchup against Tennessee on Sunday, Chase accomplished yet another notable feat.
A 30-yard touchdown pass from Joe Burrow opened the scoring for the Bengals during the second quarter of the game, and the play was a monumental one for Chase, as it became the 60th receiving TD of his still-young career.
That means the former Bayou Bengal has now joined an exclusive club, as Chase stands alongside Randy Moss and Rob Gronkowski as the only players in NFL history to have recorded 60 receiving touchdowns before turning the age of 27, according to ESPN Insights.
Chase has steadily found the end zone throughout his six seasons in the NFL, but his 2024 mark of 17 and 13 scores from his rookie year have accounted for half of his career touchdowns.
Thus far in 2026, Chase has hauled in a touchdown during 4 of his team’s six games, although he has yet to eclipse the 100-yard mark in a single contest.
With the game in the early stages of the third quarter, Chase has caught 5 passes for 62 yards and the score, which sparked a 21-0 run for the hosting Bengals.
