Boston is an Offensive ROY candidate with 284 yards, 2 TDs, and elite deep-threat metrics through 4 games.

Boston has emerged as an Offensive Rookie of the Year candidate through four games with 13 receptions for 284 yards and 2 TDs; he ranks 4th in air yards per target (16.9) and is one of only two NFL wide receivers (alongside Zay Flowers) with three catches of 45+ yards through Week 4. His 46-yard TD catch in Week 1, followed by catches of 28, 55, and 60 yards, demonstrate elite deep-threat ability; he brings in nearly 60% of passes thrown his direction. At 6'4", Boston wins on routes through size (boxing out defenders, breaking tackles) and athleticism (speed, quickness, separation). His 284 receiving yards through four games already exceed the total receiving yards of all but two receivers (Jerry Jeudy, Isaiah Bond) from the entire prior season, and he is on pace to eclipse the team's leading pass catcher from 2025, TE Harold Fannin Jr. (731 yards). ESPN's Bill Barnwell has highlighted Boston's season as putting him on track for the NFL's Offensive Rookie of the Year award.
