Receiver Height

I'm playing a Chiefs TT and of course Hardman and Hill are relatively short. I just got Josh Gordon and he's 6'2" and I've heard, and I'm noticing a bit, that height makes a difference. How big a difference? And how does this apply to corners?

old gen - no difference

next gen - people say big difference

I’m on PC so no worries. Thx!

Doesn't sound familiar but could have been. My username is hardknocks4567

I'll keep an eye out...

From what I’ve heard the bigger guys (over 6’) trigger different animations. I honestly have never paid much attention, but I do know Brandon Marshall is a bigger guy and I can Moss the best corners with him

That’s what I was seeing. Gordon made 2 or 3 leaping catches in the end zone the first few games and I’ve never seen Hardman or Hill do that.

5-11 Hester makes leaping catches for me all the time. I assume taller receiver could leap farther, although I can't confirm: my 6-6 Collin Johnson and 6-1 Joe Horn don't get as many opportunities to leap so I could compare

I was a bit disappointed with aggressive/spectacular catches by big guys. Tyreek can spec catch too on occasion:

I thought guys like 6-4 Keyshawn or 6-5 Kelce should do it consistently, but no

Last game my Double Me Kelce dropped the ball in one on one situation so it bounced off his hands right into the safety's lap and it cost me a game

I'd better have a talk with him.
