Larry Centers holds the record but not sure about how the position switch came about, in fact I thought he had always been a RB. He didn't have a WR build at all.
I just checked the record book.
Faulk 767
Centers 761

Don’t know what a Statmuse is but Centers had 827 receptions (Pro Football Reference). He is 30th all time (all positions). I will take PFR over anything.

Fair enough. Since I use Baseball Reference as my “bible” for baseball stats, I must concede your point.
