![]() ![]() Respectable numbers for sure, but all are dwarfed by Jones’ figures, despite the fact that Thomas had 20 receptions to Julio’s 19 in that same scenario. In clutch time, Thomas tallied 236 receiving yards, two catches for 20+ yards, and 12 first downs. Out of all four quarters, he tallied the most receptions (36), yards (666), touchdowns (three), catches of 20+ yards (nine - with eight of them coming in one-score games), catches of 40+ yards (two), and first downs (29) in the fourth quarter.Įven when comparing Jones to the second player on PFF’s 4th quarter list, New Orleans’ Michael Thomas, there really isn’t much of a comparison. Julio consistently found a new gear in the fourth quarter in general, last season. His average yards per reception also skyrocketed to 22.3 in said scenario, while his percentage of receptions which went for first down was an astonishing 89.5% (17 of his 19 receptions went for first downs). The situational stats compliment PFF’s assessment of Jones in clutch time (that’s what we’ll describe as in the fourth quarter and within seven points from here on out) - 424 of Jones’ league leading 1,677 receiving yards came in the fourth quarter of one-score games in 2018. ![]() Julio Jones was the league's highest-graded WR in the 4th quarter of one-score games last year /v6mIRm7JTV- Pro Football Focus May 23, 2019 ![]()
