Every trait is a share of his own targets, so volume does not move it. Each bar is the league's qualifying wide receivers; the markers are the players and the thin line is the median. Styles are not grades: a high or low share describes the role, not how well he plays it. The tags are each player's traits furthest from the middle.

Green cells turn targets into points, red cells lose them. Cells with one target are left grey.

Every play is split by what happened: completions at the catch into air yards and yards after the catch (nflverse's air EPA), the cost of the ones that fell incomplete or were picked. Bars share one scale, gains right of the line and losses left. The rate is per target, with its percentile among the league's qualifying wide receivers; the best rate in each row is green.

Each line is a player's trailing 3 games (rates are pooled over the games, not averaged); the faint dots are single games. The shaded band is the league's middle half of single games at the position, the dashed line its median. A line that climbs out of the band is a role getting bigger.

Thresholds are the quartiles of every game week by qualified wide receivers this season (690 player weeks). The right column is the average week and its swing.
