Enshrined in the Hall of Fame in 2018, Randy Moss is undoubtedly one of the greatest receivers of all time.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s No. 4 on the all-time list with 15,292 yards and No. 4 with 156 touchdowns, which is made more impressive by the fact that he\u2019s No. 17 with 982 career receptions.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the media at an event for his restaurant that\u2019s now paired with the Dolphins for concession stands at Hard Rock Stadium, Moss noted that the \u201cpolitical answer\u201d for the best receiver of all time is Jerry Rice. However\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we\u2019re talking real football, where I knock your ass out, it\u2019s me<\/a>,\u201d Rice said, via David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel.<\/p>\n

As for the present day, Tyreek Hill has been one of the league\u2019s best receivers of his era, as he\u2019s No. 7 on the active list with 11,098 yards. But that lands him at just No. 42 all-time.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s likely part of why Moss feels the way he does about Hill\u2019s status among the game\u2019s greats.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s nowhere all-time<\/a>,\u201d Moss said. \u201cWhere is he at in today\u2019s game? Tyreek Hill is probably top five. I put him top five.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hill did record one of the league\u2019s top receiving seasons in 2023 when he finished with 1,799 yards on 119 catches. But Justin Jefferson had eclipsed that in 2022 with 1,809 and Cooper Kupp had the No. 2 regular-season of all-time with 1,947 yards in 2021.<\/p>\n

Hill is coming off a year where he finished with 81 receptions, 959 yards, and six touchdowns in 17 games. His 56.4 yards per game was his lowest average since his rookie year in 2016.<\/p>\n

Hill turned 31 in March. We\u2019ll see how much he can climb the ranks with a potential bounce-back season in 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Enshrined in the Hall of Fame in 2018, Randy Moss is undoubtedly one of the greatest receivers of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":12232,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":["post-12231","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12231","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12231"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12231\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12232"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12231"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12231"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12231"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
