Chad Johnson praises Ja’Marr Chase with big comparisons

Former Cincinnati Bengal star wide receiver Chad Johnson gave some high praise to current phenom Ja’Marr Chase on Twitter.

“Steve Smith Sr., Arian Foster & Chase are the only ones who can transition (pick up speed) in a relaxed state effortlessly, it’s like they’re gliding as opposed to running damn near.” Johnson said.

Getting compared to Smith Sr., who ended his career catching almost 15,000 yards and 91 touchdowns is getting a lot of respect from Johnson.

Foster is another guy Chase should be honored to be compared to when it comes to his speed. Foster finished his career with almost 9,000 total yards and 68 touchdowns with four seasons rushing for over 1,000 yards.
