One of the most constant and dependable players for the Miami Dolphins has been wide receiver Jarvis Landry.  Landry is the first player in team history with at least one rushing attempt, one reception, one completion, one punt return, one kickoff return and one two point conversion in the same season.

It is still early in Jarvis Landry's career, but you can not ignore the superstar qualities that he undoubtedly possess and has shown since being drafted by Miami in the second round with the sixty third pick in 2014 from LSU. 

Jarvis Landry has become what OJ Mcduffie was to Dan Marino, a dependable, gritty, feisty, reliable wide receiver, who just makes plays. Quarterback Ryan Tannehill has learned to lean and depend on Jarvis Landry to make the improbable catch, the gritty extension for a first down and the ability to provide explosive plays.

Offensive Coordinator Bill Lazor has used the wide receiver in many facets this season, Landry has thrown for a nine yard pass to Ryan Tannehill that resulted in a first down, accumulated 53 receptions for 535 yards and two touchdowns, while also attempting 12 rushes for 95 yards and one touchdown.

Jarvis Landry has been very exciting to watch on special teams, he is a player that at any moment can break one and take it to the house for a score, as he did this year against the Washington Redskins 
where he evaded four defenders en route to a 69 yard punt return for a touchdown, which helped seal the victory.

The team has reached the midway point of their season and stand at 3-5 not exactly where Jarvis Landry and the Miami Dolphins saw themselves, but it is not due to lack of play, passion or heart from their ever growing wide receiver Jarvis Landry, who continues to embody what every coach looks for in it's players the ability to want to win, to play hard, to not give up to keep pressing forward and this is something Jarvis Landry does week in and week out.
