Yes, it’s just practice, but the catches this guy is making and the effort he is putting into learning the new offense is undeniable. Watkins has been making sideline catches and highlight touchdowns since he came into the league.
Pair Watkins and Tyreek Hill together and you have one of the best receiver duo’s out there. Throw in a tight end like Travis Kelce, who can’t be covered by anyone, and the leading rusher in 2017, Kareem Hunt, and Watkins will definitely get his opportunities.
The icing on the cake is having a quarterback that isn’t scared to throw through tight windows and has the arm strength to apparently throw it 85 yards.
For those that are both familiar and unfamiliar with what Sammy Watkins can bring to the Kansas City Chiefs, take a look at his five best performances so far. Prepare to be entertained.
