Jonathan Mingo of the Carolina Panthers (#KeepPounding) has been placed on injured reserve (IR) due to a foot injury, concluding his rookie season with a record for the worst receiving Defense-adjusted Yards Above Replacement (DYAR) by a rookie WR at -202. Mingo, a second-round pick from Ole Miss, finished with 43 receptions for 418 yards over 15 games, starting in 14, and 16 of those catches were 'failed completions.' He did not score a touchdown, and his catch percentage was among the NFL's lowest at 50.59%. His season high snag went for 40 yards. The Panthers promoted offensive tackle JD DiRenzo in a corresponding move to Mingo's placement on IR.

This is the flip of Jonathan Mingo... the best rookie WR DYAR seasons. I'm going to have to look closely before next week to figure out why Puka Nacua does not come out higher. TDs is part of it. #RamsHouse https://t.co/l6HvsaIN4C
I mentioned this yesterday... Jonathan Mingo is about to set the record for worst DYAR by a rookie WR. Some of these players still had good careers. A lot of this is connected to QB play. But 16 of his 43 catches are "failed completions." #KeepPounding https://t.co/RwI4DoJ0q8
I was so busy ragging on Quentin Johnston that I didn't even notice that Jonathan Mingo of the Panthers is on pace to set the record for lowest receiving DYAR by a rookie. He was at -202 through last week. Plaxico Burress is the record at -159 in 2000.
