Former MSU football WR Jayden Reed joins elite company after impressive start to NFL season

Michigan State football fans knew that wide receiver Jayden Reed was special from about the first moment he walked into the building in East Lansing. NFL fans are now starting to catch up after Reed has lit the league on fire to start the season. Reed has been so dynamic for the Green Bay Packers, he actually managed to some elite company, setting a statistical bar that has only been met by five other players in history.

Reed joins Roger Craig, Paul Hofer, Timmy Brown, Frank Gifford and Wilbur Moore as the only players to record at least 400 receiving yards and 100 rushing yards during the first five games of the season. He is the first player to do it since 1985 and, really, the only true wide receiver to hit this mark in the history of the league.
