Since Calvin Johnson Retired, the NFL Hasn't Seen Another "Megatron"
Calvin Johnson wasn't just a wide receiver; he was a phenomenon. Standing at 6'5" with a 4.35-second 40-yard dash, he combined size, speed, and skill in a way the league had never seen. His ability to outmuscle defenders and make acrobatic catches made him nearly unstoppable.
Highlights:
In 2012, Johnson set the NFL single-season receiving yards record with 1,964 yards, surpassing Jerry Rice's previous record of 1,848 yards. ā
In a 2013 game against the Dallas Cowboys, he recorded 14 receptions for 329 yards, the second-highest single-game receiving yardage in NFL history. ā
Coach's Take:
Even with today's talented receivers like Justin Jefferson and Ja'Marr Chase, none have replicated the dominance Johnson displayed. His combination of physical attributes and skill set him apart as a once-in-a-generation talent.
