News related to NFL receiving yards leaders (Week 11)
Hill and Waddle play for the Miami Dolphins. They will be on a bye week in Week 11, meaning that the “games remaining” will level out.
Justin Jefferson was the leader for Week 10. He had a monster game against the Buffalo Bills, one that included a sensational catch in a clutch situation. Jefferson’s 193 yards for the week really closed the gap on Hill.
Cooper Kupp’s chances of leading the NFL in receiving yards are not very good. Readers will note he’s among the top five statistically above, however, he is not among the top-five favorites. Kupp suffered a high ankle sprain in Week 10 and the injury “doesn’t sound good,” Adam Schefter of ESPN.com reports. Given the deficit that Kupp is facing and the fact that multiple players are ahead of him if Kupp misses just one game, he’s very unlikely to win the receiving yards race.
