How to use Receiver in a sentence?

1. Mel Blount:

   When I saw Harold, I figured he was a basketball player and what is he doing out here? but then after you see him run routes and catch the football, you see he’s a tall receiver. The thing about Harold is he was different, he knew he was different, and if that ball was anywhere in his zone, he’s going to catch it.

2. Cris Collinsworth:

   Yeah, Penei Sewell is a really good player, but he’s not been what Ja'Marr Chase has been this year. Ja'Marr Chase, in my estimation, is already the best receiver that I've ever seen play with a Cincinnati Bengals uniform on, and I don't say that lightly.

3. William Blake:

   The thankful receiver bears a plentiful harvest.

4. Russell Wilson:

   Hes an amazing receiver, a guy who was great last year for us, made some great plays. Obviously, hes been a great player over his years and all that. But I think more than anything else, its a testament hopefully to his growth in life, you always want to see people overcome, overcome challenges, and everything else.

5. Arthur Koestler:

   God seems to have left the receiver off the hook and time is running out.
