Kamar Aiken Has Career-High Game Despite Ravens Loss

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Yes, the Baltimore Ravens lost another game in the 2015 season. But, one of the Ravens has (thankfully) avoided injury and been stepping up while all the receivers seem to be dropping like flies.

Say hello to No. 11, Kamar Aiken, who in the first half of Sunday's the game against the Chiefs, set a single-game career high with 117 receiving yards on 6 catches.

Let's not forget when he caught that epic quarter-ending Hail Mary touchdown pass:

Aiken, who has been able to catch five passes or more in the last seven games and has 42 catches for 528 yards and three touchdowns since Steve Smith Sr. was injured. Only Derrick Mason (in 2007) has a longer streak in Ravens franchise history.

He now leads the Ravens in all receiving categories with 62 catches, 802 yards and five touchdowns.

Chiefs Head Coach Andy Reid agreed after yesterday's game said, "That No. 11 [Aiken], by the way, is a heck of a player." Reid continued, "I saw him after the game and told him that. Not just on that play, but just in general a good football player."

Here are a few opinions across the league:

Do you think Aiken is doing a good job?
