This is how we do.... Jim Brown-US PRESSWIRE
The Tennessee Titans’ WR Kenny Britt is one of the best, yard for yard. For today’s Titans stat, courtesy of our friends over at PFF, we “Three Years of Yards Per Route Run: Wide Receivers.”
Now due to injury, Britt nearly missed this category because he barely had enough snaps to qualify for it. But alas, he has kept just healthy enough to make the minimum amount of snaps for it and he came in third overall in the NFL. Here’s the chart with the top rankings.
Via PFF:
| Rank | Name | Current Team | Rec. Yards | Pass Routes | Yards Per Route Run |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Andre Johnson | HOU | 3478 | 1341 | 2.59 |
| 2 | Wes Welker | NE | 3990 | 1637 | 2.44 |
| 3 | Kenny Britt | TEN | 1765 | 725 | 2.43 |
| 4 | Jordy Nelson | GB | 2500 | 1040 | 2.40 |
| 5 | Percy Harvin | MIN | 2666 | 1124 | 2.37 |
| 6 | Hakeem Nicks | NYG | 3479 | 1543 | 2.25 |
| 7 | Brandon Marshall | CHI | 3348 | 1488 | 2.25 |
| 8 | Brandon Lloyd | NE | 2531 | 1125 | 2.25 |

| 14 | Marques Colston | NO | 3744 | 1785 | 2.10 |
| 15 | Vincent Jackson | TB | 2519 | 1234 | 2.04 |
The guys at PFF were surprise to see Kenny Britt up there, but I think any Titans’ fan would have expected it, as I did. Kenny Britt is an absolute terror when healthy and a big receiver that’s hard to bring down. Had Kenny been healthy for every season, he’d probably be right at the top fighting Andre Johnson for that number one spot, and that’s no joke.
If Kenny can shake the troubles that have haunted his legs the past few seasons and keep healthy, he could be well on his way to the Hall of Fame. He has three seasons under his belt so far and will only be turning 24 this fall. The kid has mountains of potential and we see it every time he steps on the field.
Please stay healthy Kenny. Please! You’re a huge part of this offense and we all love watching you destroy opposing defenses. Take care of your body.
We’ll see you out there.
