Despite his age, Julio Jones is still one of the league best receivers in the league
By Steve Risser
Last night, the Falcons beat the Panthers 25–17, a big reason for that was Julio Jones who had 7 catches of 137 yards and after the game he still has no doubt that he’s the best receiver in the football. At this point I would take DeAndre Hopkins as the best WR in the game but it’s pretty close. In the last 6 years Jones has been in the top 3 in receiving yards every year, with this being his 10th year in the league some thought his production might go down, but it hasn’t despite missing 2 games he’s still 6th in the league in receiving yards with 584 and in both games the Falcons won he had monster games last night he was great and in their win last night and a couple weeks ago he had 8 catches for 137 yards and you can guess what happened in the 2 games he missed the Falcons lost both one blowing a 26–10 lead to the Bears and in the other the Falcons had their lowest point total of the season 16 against the Panthers. The way Jones is playing it looks like he’s on his way to his 8 Pro Bowl and possibly his 6th all pro selection and there’s no doubt at the end of his career that he will be a first ballot Hall of Famer.
