Sports Illustrated asked the Cincinnati Bengals star to name who would make his Mount Rushmore of wide receivers. He proceeded to name Calvin Johnson, Antonio Brown, Cooper Kupp and Jerry Rice.

"I'm not knocking them. I'd add Ocho in there too if I could," he said when asked about Moss and Owens. "There's only four."
