Ten of Chase's touchdowns have gone for 60 yards or more, making him just the third player in NFL history to achieve that in his first four seasons in the league. Homer Jones (12) and Harlon Hll (10) are the others.
In addition to Chase's 14 touchdowns of 40 yards or more from Burrow, he also has one from Jake Browning, giving him 15 in his career. That moves him past Tyreek Hill (14) for the fourth most touchdown receptions of at least 40 yards.
