Giants Bracket Challenge - Jones

WR Homer Jones, 1967
Stats: 49 REC, 1,209 YDS, 13 TD; 46-YD RUSH TD
Holding any record for a franchise embarking on its 95th season is special. Maintaining it through the modern era is downright incredible. Homer Jones, a 20th-round draft selection, caught 13 touchdowns in 1967. No Giant has ever caught more. Odell Beckham Jr. tied it in 2015, but did not break it. Jones racked up 1,209 yards on just 49 catches for an astounding 24.7-yard average.
