Colston: short touchdowns

Marques Colston doesn't have a lot of speed. He's a bigger, slower receiver who's at his best working the underneath stuff.

Colston caught 10 TDs last year, and none of them were from outside the red zone. 87 other wide receivers have caught double digit touchdowns in the last 10 years, and all of them had at least one touchdown from 20-plus yards.

Of the average scoring distances in that group (of 88 guys), the two lowest figures both belong to Colston.
