Grade Breakdown
What do these mean?Why 43.5?
Williams grades out almost exactly average, since none of his key numbers - efficiency, success rate, target share, or win probability impact - stood out much either way. With only 9 targets in one graded game, this is a small sample, so it could shift quickly.
Lifting the grade
- His deep catch against Detroit in Q4 gained 21 yards and added 2.7 expected points, his best play of the year.
Holding it back
- A few short catches against Green Bay came up short on third down, including a 4-yard gain on 3rd-and-7 that cost 0.7 expected points.
