Grade Breakdown
What do these mean?Why 62.9?
Douglas grades right around average largely because none of his numbers stood out strongly either way through just 3 games and 10 targets, a small sample where a play or two can swing things. He had big gains, like a 25-yard catch against the Raiders, but also a costly interception and a couple of drops in coverage.
