Lemon's 31 catches rank 3rd among NFL rookies; on pace for 65-catch season.

Lemon caught six passes for 57 yards against Washington, marking only the second time in 36 years the Eagles have had two rookies over 50 receiving yards in the same game. Lemon now has 31 catches, 3rd-most among NFL rookies and only two fewer than rookie leader K.C. Concepcion of the Browns (33). On pace for 65 catches, which would be 3rd-most in Eagles history by a rookie behind Keith Jackson (81 in 1988) and Jordan Matthews (67 in 2014). With seven catches against Dallas and six against Washington, Lemon tied the franchise record of consecutive games by a rookie with six or more receptions, matching Jeremy Maclin (2009) and DeVonta Smith (2021).
