He&#8217;s made 12 starts and played in all 14 games, catching 20 passes for 163 yards. He&#8217;s at 383 offensive snaps, averaging more than 27 snaps a game, and with 11 more offensive snaps over the final three games, he will set a career high in that metric as well.<\/p>\n<p>Ruckert got his first NFL touchdown reception on a 5-yard toss from Tyrod Taylor late in the Week 2 game against Buffalo. He has set career highs with four receptions against Dallas and at New England and had a career-long 24-yard catch in the comeback win at Cincinnati.
