Don't sleep on these AFC players heading into the 2021 season
Whenever a regular season comes to an end, there's often more than a handful of players who not only exceed expectations but elevate their stature in the league as one of the game's stars. Some you can sort of see coming, but more often than not there are those who completely burst onto the scene out of left field. In the AFC in 2020, you could point to Bills quarterback Josh Allen leaping to superstar/MVP-caliber status last year as an example. To a lesser degree, even Jaguars undrafted rookie James Robinson came out of nowhere to become one of the better running backs in the league in 2020. Those are two solid examples to highlight how these breakouts can come from anyone and anywhere across the NFL, so you'll have to keep your head on a swivel to identify them. Who is on deck for a similar leap in 2021? That's what we'll try to be predict here. Below, we'll roll through each team in the AFC and select one under-the-radar player that may be poised for a big breakout campaign next season.More Related News
