Highlights:
He acknowledged adding a talented wideout to the roster capable of winning one-on-one matchups regularly would provide a boost to several areas of the offense. One of the biggest areas the team struggled was inside the red zone.
“That was another thing that we brought up is how many times did we really throw it outside the numbers when we got down there tight?,” Johnson said. “It was probably below league average. That’s something we need to look at and need to continue to explore.”
40 time:
The 6-foot-4 Chark was one of the most athletic pass catchers in the draft when he was coming out of LSU in 2018, running a 4.34-second, 40-yard dash and leaping 40 inches in the vertical jump.
Selected in the second round by the Jaguars that year, he played sparingly as a rookie, registering just 14 catches for 174 yards while being held out of the end zone. But things got on track during his second season in 2019, when he hauled in 73 balls for 1,008 yards and eight scores.
Contract:
Former Jaguars wide receiver DJ Chark Jr. intends to sign a one-year deal with the Detroit Lions, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
One AFC executive told ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler that Chark has what it takes to be great, but his fitness and nuanced route running aren’t where they could be.
After a rookie season in which he struggled to get on the field and played mainly on special teams, Chark made the Pro Bowl in 2019, becoming just the fifth player in franchise history to surpass 1,000 yards receiving — catching 73 passes for 1,008 yards and eight touchdowns.
Wife:
They had been dating since Chark was 17, and the two got engaged in May.
Chark shared photos of the wedding on social media Wednesday.
”You’ve helped me reach new levels of thinking with compassion and a love I’ve never knew existed! You are the most amazing woman I’ve ever met and you’re going to be the best mother our kid(s) could ever ask for,” Chark wrote above wedding photos of the two on his Twitter account.
