Looking at the former NFL receiver's list of top wideouts, Kupp won the triple crown when it came to the wide receiver position. He led the NFL in receptions (145), receiving yards (1,947 yards), and touchdowns (16) last season.

Last season, Adams was second behind Kupp in receptions with 123, third in receiving yards with 1,553 yards, and fifth in touchdowns with 11.

In the 2021 season, Allen was sixth in receptions (106) while finishing in the top 15 in receiving yards (1,138 yards) and was in the top 25 in touchdowns (6).

We'll see if Edelman's list of his top wideouts holds up as the 2022 season approaches.
