Grade Breakdown
What do these mean?Why 81.5?
His grade is driven by how much expected points he produced per target, which was well above the average receiver even against tougher-than-average defenses. Three games is a small sample, and week 2 at Denver was a clear down game between two big ones.
Lifting the grade
- +0.655 expected points per target, 13th of 62 receivers, and the grade credits him for facing tougher defenses than average.
- Week 1 vs CLE: 30-yard touchdown on 3rd and 7 from Lawrence (+3.9 expected points).
- Week 3 vs NE: 17-yard touchdown on 3rd and 17 (+3.9 expected points).
