Following the success of ‘Quarterback,’ Netflix is set to bring another football show to the screen, this time focusing on the wide receiver position.

The streaming giants want to give fans a behind-the-scenes view of their favorite receivers ahead of the 2024 NFL season. And, unlike ‘Quarterback,’ which zoned in on three NFL quarterbacks, ‘Receiver’ will offer a closer look at five of the top pass catchers in the league.

The upcoming show, set for release on July 10, features Justin Jefferson, Davante Adams, George Kittle, Deebo Samuel, and Amon-Ra St. Brown.

A description of the docuseries reads: “It’s been said that there’s no more difficult position in the NFL than the quarterback. But throwing the pass is only half the story. Receiver follows five of the NFL’s best pass catchers throughout the 2023 season on and off the field.”

Check Out The Trailer For ‘Receiver’

The ‘Receiver’ trailer, shown below, offers a sneak peek into the lives of the aforementioned stars as they go about their daily lives on and off the field.

It should be particularly interesting for San Francisco 49ers stars Samuel and Kittle as they went all the way to the Super Bowl last season, albeit failing to beat the Kansas City Chiefs.

Jefferson also had an interesting year in terms of difficulty. The Minnesota Vikings star endured a lengthy period on the sidelines because of hamstring and chest issues. Yet, he finished with over 1,000 receiving yards for the fourth straight year despite missing seven games.

The first season of ‘Receiver’ will consist of eight episodes, each running for 45 minutes. It promises to be a spectacle.
