The wide receiver position in the NFL right now is as talented as it has ever been, with quite a few players at the position in the league being considered legitimate superstars, like Justin Jefferson, Tyreek Hill, CeeDee Lamb, and Ja’Marr Chase.
Along with all these very talented wide receivers, the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft is arguably the deepest draft at the position in recent memory, meaning even more talent is coming into the league.
While the league prepares for an influx of talent at wide receiver, two of the best players in the league at wideout have been working out together this NFL offseason, which has led to one of them getting a bit jealous of the other’s current situation.
Apparently, Jefferson, who makes a strong case for being the league’s best wide receiver, is a bit jealous of the chemistry that his former LSU teammates, Chase and Joe Burrow, have on the Cincinnati Bengals, via JPAFootball.
“I love them together, I love the chemistry that they have, but it’s definitely some jealously on that side,” Jefferson said.

Things will likely get even more challenging for Jefferson moving forward with veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins signing with the Atlanta Falcons in NFL free agency recently and the Minnesota Vikings bringing in Sam Darnold instead, while also potentially trading up in the upcoming draft to land a quarterback.
As for Chase and Burrow, both of whom dealt with injuries this past season, they will hope to get back to form next season in an attempt to get the Bengals back in title contention in the AFC.
