There are a number of reasons why he doesn't have huge receiving yard numbers.
The offense he was in was either primarily centred around the run, the WRs were unable to get any separation so teams doubled him, the offense was (is) spectacularly inept, and he is a really good blocker so with a bad o-line he was kept in to block a lot.
He has had some injury issues and that is a wildcard, but he has super talent and with a QB for the first time it will be interesting to see how he does, even with him over 30 years old.
