fantasy pts / game (PPR)
- Shrinking role
He's averaging 24.0 dropbacks and runs over his last game, compared with 29.0 before that. Fewer chances cap his ceiling no matter how efficient he is.
- Inefficient touches
4.7 yards per attempt on the season (the typical QB is at 7.2), and 5.4 over his last game. Production is being propped up by volume more than explosiveness.
- Scoring without touchdowns
0% of his fantasy points come from touchdowns. His yardage is doing the work, so there is upside if the touchdowns start coming.
- Soft recent schedule
Opponents in his last game (TEN) give up more EPA per play than the league average. Some of the recent production comes from the matchups.
- Strong supporting cast
NYG are averaging +0.05 EPA per play on offense. An efficient offense sustains drives and creates more scoring chances.
