Y’all know how fast it is Henry RuggsBut what’s most surprising about him this season is his ability to catch tricky passes. He caught some tough passes last season, but they were very rare. And although it looks like it’s becoming a complete receiver for Las Vegas Raiders, his speed is still his best attribute.
There aren’t many players in the NFL who can keep up with him. In fact, the legend of the Raiders, Bo Jackson, believes that no one can catch it. He made that very clear when responding to a recent tweet from the team’s official website.
Jackson knows a thing or two about speed. He reportedly ran the 40-yard dash in 4.13 seconds early in his NFL career, a mark that surpasses all current players in the league. Ruggs covered the distance in 4.27 seconds in last year’s NFL Combine. He was the fastest player, but he didn’t beat Jackson. However, Ruggs is quick as a bullet and arguably the fastest player in the entire league.
Is Ruggs becoming a top receiver?
It seemed that after his rookie season Ruggs could turn into a fiasco for the Raiders. He only had 26 receptions and it seemed he did not enjoy the quarterback’s confidence, Derek Carr. But it seems that history has changed after three games this season.
Ruggs is the team leader with 237 yards. He even has more than just the star tight end, Darren Waller, which is only 224 yards long. Even more important, it’s clear that Carr is trusting him this season. He has thrown some dangerous passes and he has been able to respond. Waller is still the team’s main target, but Ruggs is starting to look like a main receiver. Now that he is a constant threat, the Raiders have an elite group of receivers, something they have been looking for since Jon Gruden took over.
Gruden is impressed with his group of receivers
Gruden is a coach with an offensive mindset. So it came as a surprise that he decided to make big changes to his receiving pool during the offseason. Ruggs y Bryan Edwards They didn’t show much as rookies to show that they would be reliable targets in every game. Gruden is happy with what he has seen so far.
“We trust a lot in our group of receivers”, Gruden said Recently. “They may be young, but they are talented, they are reliable, they are strong and they are versatile. They are also explosive, and if we turn our attention to Waller, I think these young men can show that they can also cause harm.
The group of receivers of Waller, Ruggs, Edwards and Hunter Renfrow he has been one of the best at the beginning of the season. It is still very early, so many things can change. However, what has been done so far has been impressive. This has undoubtedly been the best group of receivers Carr has had since he had Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree in 2016.
