Rams are among NFL leaders in unique statistics

The Los Angeles Rams boast one of the NFL’s most impressive wide receiver tandems in Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp, although we haven’t seen much of the duo on the field in 2024.

Following the injuries to Nacua and Kupp, another Rams pass catcher has become a top target for quarterback Matthew Stafford: Demarcus Robinson.

Robinson has recorded 21 catches for 327 yards and five touchdowns this season, the latter already a career high in just eight games.

So what I entered Robinson where it suddenly hits scores regularly?

Well, he’s among the league leaders in a very unique stat: targets in the end zone.

In fact, Robinson is tied for fifth in this category.

Most of the other names on this list aren’t surprising, as they are typically either No. 1 or No. 2 receivers. But Robinson, a guy who entered the season as the Rams’ unquestioned No. 3 and has been a backup option since entering the NFL in 2017?

It’s certainly shocking to see Robinson’s name on such a list, but many liked the 30-year-old and felt he was underutilized throughout his professional career.

Robinson has definitely been something of an unsung hero for Los Angeles in 2024, as he helped hold down the fort while Nacua and Kupp missed significant time.

Four of Robinson’s touchdowns came in the last two weeks, and he recently caught six balls for 94 yards and a few scores in Los Angeles’ crucial Week 9 win over the Seattle Seahawks. This included a sensational, game-winning one-handed grab.

The University of Florida product was originally drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs and spent the first six years of his career with the Chiefs, only finishing with over 400 yards receiving twice.

Robinson then spent a season with the Baltimore Ravens, where he had 48 receptions for 458 yards and two touchdowns in 2022 before joining the Rams.

During his first campaign in Hollywood, Robinson caught 26 passes for 371 yards while reaching the end zone four times.

He is absolutely poised to shatter those numbers this season.
