He bounced back with 1,378 yards and 13 touchdowns on 174 targets. It was the Brock Osweiler year. Maybe J.J. McCarthy will be the Brock Osweiler year for Justin Jefferson.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

McCarthy's first year could mirror Hopkins' Osweiler bounce-back for Jefferson.

Source draws parallel to DeAndre Hopkins' 2016 bounce-back (954 yards, 4 TDs to 1,378 yards, 13 TDs on 174 targets in 2017 during Brock Osweiler year), suggesting J.J. McCarthy's first year as Cardinals starter could be a similar turning point for Jefferson's production, implying significant upside potential.
