Denzel Boston is elite and was one of the best wide receivers in the NFL Draft, and now he's ready to prove it, especially to all the teams that passed on him. He's already making an incredible impression on the Browns fan base from everything they saw in Rookie Minicamp and now in OTAs. The latest highlight reel catch is something you don't want to miss. It'll make Browns fans excited and Husky fans proud.
Watch the clip of DeShaun Watson dropping a over the shoulder pass into double coverage and Denzel Boston making the flawless catch:
WOW.

There's genuine hype around Boston in Cleveland, especially with the early rapport it seems that he and Watson are having. This is good news for both, as Watson is trying to earn the starting quarterback spot and is probably the most likely to do so. Boston getting some early chemistry going with him is important.
Cleveland.com’s Lance Reisland said this about Boston, "Continue to be impressed with the ability of Denzel Boston to bend at the waist and stay fluid in and out of breaks. Had the catch of the day on a vertical from Deshaun Watson. Here he is on a deep speed out during group work at OTAs."
This is all high praise for the former Washington Husky, though it comes as no surprise to UW fans. He was elite at Washington, and the fact that he fell in the draft (even if just a little) was more surprising than his ability to show up on an NFL roster and start impressing right out of the gate.
Boston will have a clear opportunity in Cleveland to be one of their top receiving threats, with Jerry Jeudy being the only clear receiver in front of him. As a rookie, he is getting the reps with the No. 1 offense and is developing chemistry within the unit and with Watson.
The highlight reel clip above is only one example; there are more posts going around about the special plays he is making and the ability to run his routes. Fisch would be proud as the "Be a Pro" turns into reality.
