Falcons news: Julio Jones Becomes Fastest Player in NFL History to 10,000 Receiving Yards

Julio Jones has been one of the NFL’s best wide receivers since his rookie season and has helped lead the Atlanta Falcons to relevance in the NFC. Over the past few years, the Falcons have been viewed as serious contenders, but this season has been a bit rough. Despite the team’s struggles, Jones has been continuing his dominant play.

ESPN Stats & Infotook to Twitter to share the record that Jones set during today’s game with the Cleveland Browns. Jones became the fastest player in NFL history to 10,000 receiving yards, breaking the record previously set by New York Giants’ star Odell Beckham Jr.

Needless to say, reaching 10,000 yards in just 104 games is incredible. It shows just how dominant Jones has been and the level that he has played throughout his entire career.
