Who Should I Start? Julio Jones or Tyler Boyd

Friday, April 4, 7:32 PM

Former Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones has officially announced his retirement. The Alabama product had an incredible run as a Falcon, with whom he spent nine seasons before serving three consecutive one-year stints with the Tennessee Titans, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Philadelphia Eagles. Jones tallied 914 receptions, 13,703 yards, and 66 touchdowns in 166 career games. The 35-year-old is the author of the third-highest single-season receiving yardage total of all time and ranks No. 16 on the all-time list of most receiving yards in a career. Jones was a spectacle on the field, with a rare blend of size, speed, and physicality that sought to give any defensive back fits. The former sixth-overall pick of the 2011 draft holds an excellent case for becoming a member of the Hall of Fame.

Free-agent wide receiver Tyler Boyd said he thinks he still has "a few more years" left in the NFL and would "absolutely" be interested in playing for the Pittsburgh Steelers after spending the first eight years of his NFL career with the Cincinnati Bengals. Boyd is a Pennsylvania native and University of Pittsburgh alumni. In 2024 with the Tennessee Titans, he caught 39 of 57 targets for only 390 yards and no touchdowns in 16 games (eight starts). The 30-year-old former second-rounder could be a nice fit for Pittsburgh, a team that has question marks beyond WR1 DK Metcalf after trading George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys in the offseason. Boyd's 390 receiving yards last year were his lowest total since his sophomore campaign in 2017, and it was the first time in nine seasons he was held out of the end zone. There's no guarantee he'd have a sizeable role if he were to join the Steelers.
