How this is measured

Fantasy points are nflverse's standard and full-PPR scoring (6 points for a rushing or receiving touchdown, 4 for a passing touchdown, minus 2 for an interception or a lost fumble); half PPR is the average of the two. Ranks are points a game among players at his position with at least half the most games played. Most weeks is his 20th to 80th percentile game. Bars are green on a boom week and red on a bust; the dashed line is the starter line, the points a game of the WR24 in a 12-team league. The format you pick is remembered on this device.

Playstylehow he is used, against the league at his positionamong 146 wide receivers

He wins before the catch rather than after it: 10% of his yards come after the catch (league 30%). Screens are not part of his role: 0% of his targets (league 4%). His share of the team's targets is 11%: on third down it holds at 10%; inside the 20 it holds at 12%. Motion is part of the plan: 68% of his targets come with pre-snap movement (league 53%).

How this is measured

Every trait is a share of his own targets, so volume does not move it. The marker is him among the league's qualifying wide receivers; the dashed line is the median. Styles are not grades: a high or low percentile is a description, not a verdict. Play action, screen, RPO, motion and blitz flags come from FTN charting and read low in a week it has not published.
