I read this in an article that referenced PFF stats to better understand why JT isn’t being put into the right position to succeed:

Zero drops on the season (FYI-contested balls and balls where the receiver needs to dive/high jump are not considered drops)
Only 18 % of JTs targets have been deep balls, by deep, passes over 20 yards!
JT has only been targeted 4 times over 20 yards: 0 of 4
He caught 8 of 9 when targeted in the middle of the field under 20 yards

Last year he was thrown passes over 20 yards 26% of the time and caught 9 of 16 targets for over 300 yards and 3 TDs.

Not sure which is more disappointing, JW’s reluctance to throw more than 20 yards or Enos’ offense utilizing JT less than Richt did with Rosier as QB.
