Fewest games to get to 500 receptions

Current record holder: Anquan Boldin, Julio Jones, 80 games

Divisional rival Atlanta Falcons star receiver Julio Jones currently holds the record for fewest games to get to 500 receptions in a career. Unfortunately, that record will only be in effect for a couple more games.

Julio Jones also tied with Anquan Boldin for this record that is shared. Julio Jones is the most recent to do it though (2017). This is a great feat that should not be overlooked, but it will be broken this season.

Right now, Michael Thomas sits with 470 receptions in 63 games. For him to break this record, Thomas would need 30 receptions in his next 17 games. Last season, Thomas had 149 in 16 games that season.

This is a no-brainer. Michael Thomas will likely break this record three games into the season if he hits ten every game. If he doesn’t, he will hit it in four or five games. Regardless, this record will be added to his arsenal this season.
