It can be said no doubt, but in the same breath you could say it held him back a little bit too. Only so many targets to go around 04-06(03 rookie season stopped short at 10 games). Then Marvin got hurt in 07 and Clark stepped into his increased role with ease. Marvin came back for one more year in 08, which explains the slight dip in production in 08, but went back at it in 09 when Marcin retired. Then got hurt in 10.
He was 1st round pick coming out, so the talent was present from the beginning.
His 3 really good years were when he had a big increase in opportunities.
He had a solid career, good longevity, even though he had quite a few injuries over the years.
12th most rec TDs by a TE
25th most rec TDs
Solid playoff production as well.
Averaged 5rec 80yds a game in 06 SB Championship run.
