Redskins TE Jordan Reed makes NFL history with 200th career catch
The Washington Redskins signed tight end Jordan Reed to a long-term extension back in May. The five-year, $50 million deal made him among the highest-paid tight ends in the league, and he’s playing as such.
In the first quarter of Sunday’s game, Reed caught the 200th pass of his young career, becoming the fastest tight end to do so in NFL history (38 games).

Reed has been in the league for three-plus years, but injuries have limited him to just 38 games. He appears to be fully healthy now, and his numbers are proof.
Reed caught five passes for 36 yards and two touchdowns in the first quarter against the Browns.
