Nacua's 12.3 targets per game leads NFL; historic rate comparable to Hall of Famers.

Nacua is averaging 12.3 targets per game through six games, leading the NFL by a sizable margin; this rate is in historic territory, comparable only to Julio Jones (12.7 in 2015), Marvin Harrison (12.8 in 2002), and Terrell Owens (13.1 in 2005). The source notes this high-volume target share is sustainable given Nacua's elite production and Matthew Stafford's conservative downfield passing approach, which favors the routes and concepts Nacua excels at.
