Over the first 5 games, Puka had 52 receptions for 588 yds (11.3) with 2 TDs
Over the last 12 games, Puka had 77 receptions for 1127 yds (14.6) with 8 TDs
Puka had less receptions per game but how long did we expect him to survive making 10 per game?? His TD production went way up. A deeper dive into the rest of the receiving corp shows marked improvement too, particularly with Mumpfield and Xavier.

I wonder what new wrinkles McVay has installed into his 13P scheme?
