Obviously broke the record for TDs by a TE. It also puts him in a tie for 17th all time. If he can get one per game the rest of the way it will put him in a tie for 3rd tied with Sharpe and Clayton and only surpassed by Rice and Moss.
Gronk has 71 catches. Gonzalez has seasons of 102 and 99 and our own Ben Coates has 96. He's not getting there but some where in the mid 80's is still a hell of a season. Several other players have gone over 90, including Gonzalez a few more times, but for perspective Shannon Sharpe did 80+ once at 87 and Dallas Clark had exactly 80 twice.
1088 receiving yards.
Winslow 1290
Gonzalez 1258
67 yards per game for the all time records.
Throw in the fact he's a better blocker by far than anybody else listed and we are truly watching the best season by a TE ever and that's not hyperbole.
