fantasy pts / game (PPR)
- Bigger role
He's averaging 37.0 dropbacks and runs over his last game, compared with 30.0 before that. More opportunity is the main reason the production has risen.
- Inefficient touches
5.7 yards per attempt on the season (the typical QB is at 7.2), and 5.0 over his last game. Production is being propped up by volume more than explosiveness.
- Touchdown-dependent
49% of his fantasy points come from touchdowns. Touchdowns swing a lot from week to week, so expect some regression unless his volume grows.
- Protecting the football
He's throwing an interception on 1.1% of his attempts. Low turnover risk keeps drives alive and his floor high.
- Struggling offense around him
TEN are averaging -0.24 EPA per play on offense. Stalled drives and fewer red-zone trips limit what he can produce.
