NFL Box Score Breakdown: Week 11 Snaps, Routes & Personnel Usage

Stat Table Key

     

Weekly stats (first six columns)

• Snap = % of team snaps that player was on the field for
• Route = route share (routes run / QB dropbacks)
• RUSHING = rushing line
• RECEIVE = receiving line
• Tgt = targets
• AY = Air Yards

           

2025 Season Stats (final five columns)

• Sn'25 = snap share for the season
• Rt'25 = route share for the season
• TPRR = Targets per Route Run
• TS = Percentage of team's targets
• AYS = Percentage of team's air yards

The final five columns of each stat table below (written in italics) show numbers for the entire season. Bold lettering denotes especially strong marks relative to positional standards. Green lettering for the weekly stats denotes considerable increases in playing time and/or usage relative to past weeks. Red lettering denotes the opposite — a decreased role relative to prior games.

If you're looking for target and air-yard shares that only include active games, you can find those updated every Tuesday on RotoWire's advanced receiving stats page. 

Jets (14) at Patriots (27) 

Jets Personnel: 11 - 74% / 12 - 19%

57 Plays — 33 DBs — 7.5 aDOT — 15-of-27 for 116 yards — 1 TD, 0 INT, 2 sacks, 4 scrambles

• Jets coach Aaron Glenn announced Monday that Tyrod Taylor will replace Justin Fields as the starting QB for Week 12 at Baltimore.
  • I don't think the offense will be any better with Taylor, but his style of QB play can arguably make it easier to evaluate the rest of the roster.
• TE Mason Taylor is one guy who might benefit from playing with Taylor, but the rookie ceded a few more snaps/routes than usual to Jeremy Ruckert on Thursday, playing 76% of the snaps in 11 personnel (compared to 92% in the previous game). That did happen a couple of other times this year, and Taylor then rebounded to 90+ percent of snaps in 11 personnel the next week. 
• RB Breece Hall had his second-largest snap share (72%) of the season, with his route share rebounding to 48% after three straight games below 40%. In terms of touches, it was the usual, with Hall getting 16 of 19 RB opportunities (four carries, two targets).
• WR Adonai Mitchell led the team in targets (six) and air yards (97) but dropped two passes, finishing with just one catch for 10 yards.
  • Mitchell's 49% snap share ranked just fourth among Jets WRs, but his 66% route share was tied for second-best on the team.
• WRs John Metchie and Isaiah Williams also took on more snaps/routes/targets relative to the previous game, while Tyler Johnson and Arian Smith lost work.
  • Metchie led the way in terms of snaps (82%) and production (3-45-1) but actually finished behind Williams for both routes and targets.
    • Williams caught just one pass for two yards, but he also had a carry and attempted a pass on a trick play, plus he returned kickoffs and punts. 

Patriots Personnel: 11 - 63% / 21 - 13% / 6OL - 18%

62 Plays — 37 DBs — 10.9 aDOT — 25-of-34 for 281 yards — 1 TD, 0 INT, 1 sack, 2 scrambles

• RB TreVeyon Henderson played 90% of snaps and scored all three New England TDs.
  • RB Terrell Jennings (shoulder) was listed as active but didn't play on offense or special teams. D'Ernest Johnson was the No. 2 RB, taking one carry in each of the final three quarters.
• WR Stefon Diggs had a season high in route share for the second straight week, bumping up to 78% in Week 10 and then 89% in Week 11.
  • Diggs' two largest snap shares? Also the past two games. And he's been targeted 19 times in that stretch, putting up 14-151-1. With Drake Maye rolling and Diggs essentially a full-time player again, we're looking at WR2 fantasy value, or maybe even low-end WR1 range.
• WR Mack Hollins was a full-time player again and put up 4-64-0 on five targets.
  • Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) shouldn't be out much longer, however.
  • Kyle Williams ran nearly as many routes as Hollins/Diggs but finished with just three incomplete targets (87 air yards).

Commanders (13) at Dolphins (16) - OT 

Commanders Personnel: 11 - 44% / 12 - 27% / 6OL - 22%

64 Plays — 32 DBs — 7.3 aDOT — 20-of-30 for 213 yards — 1 TD, 1 INT, 1 sack, 1 scramble

• For a second straight week, RB Chris Rodriguez got the start and worked as Washington's lead runner. This time he stayed healthy, after leaving midway through the second half the week before. However, his workload after halftime (30% snaps, six touches) was far less impressive than his pre-halftime load (56% snaps, 10 carries), and his short-yardage "contributions" were a stuffed run and a false start penalty. 
  • The short version? Rodriguez had season highs for snap share (45%) and carries (16), taking 16 of 32 RB opportunities (50%) while Croskey-Merritt got just 27% of snaps and 10 touches — still enough work to prevent Rodriguez from being highly valuable, but not enough work for JCM to be startable. Keep in mind that Jeremy McNichols still gets the playing time in clear passing situations (on a bad team, no less).
    • Washington had just three drives in the first half, with each lasting 9+ plays and resulting in a field-goal attempt. Rodriguez took 85% of snaps and all five RB carries on the first two drives, before giving way to Croskey-Merritt for the start of the third series. JCM then took four touches, but Rodriguez subbed back in for the final two carries of the lengthy drive.
    • In the second half, Rodriguez came out with four touches on the first six plays, but Croskey-Merritt and McNichols both mixed in on the following series, and JCM then dominated touches on the next drive (until Rodriguez subbed in at the 1-yard line and got stuffed on third down).
• WR Deebo Samuel and TE Zach Ertz accounted for 16 of 29 targets, with Chris Moore (in a full-time role) being the only other guy to draw more than two.
• WR Jaylin Lane shared snaps with Robbie Chosen before missing the second half with a hip injury. Chosen played just 32% of snaps in the second half, with TE Colson Yankoff and WR Jacoby Jones also playing a good bit.

Dolphins Personnel: 11 - 20% / 21 - 19% / 6OL - 41%

54 Plays — 23 DBs — 6.2 aDOT — 14-of-20 for 171 yards — 0 TD, 0 INT, 3 sacks, 0 scrambles

• Workload shares were similar to recent weeks, except for Cedrick Wilson taking more snaps from Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (the two have one combined target the past two weeks).
• I don't know if it'll save his job, but Mike McDaniel at least deserves some kind of credit for remaking his offense on the fly in a run-first image (while still doing a lot of the passing-game stuff that's made De'Von Achane so consistent for fantasy).
  • He may not have the blockers to pull it off against tougher defenses, but it's at least kept Tua alive and the Dolphins competitive.
• Miami had three goal-line sequences. On the first, Ollie Gordon got stuffed from the 2-yard line on third down, right after Achane had a two-yard gain from the 4-yard line. On the second, RB Ollie Gordon scored a one-yard TD after Achane was tackled at the 1-yard line on a seven-yard reception. On the third, right at the two-minute warning, Achane got stuffed from the 1-yard line on third down and hurt his back on the play (Gordon then got stuffed for a two-yard loss on fourth down). Achane returned for overtime and took three carries for 22 yards to set up a chip-shot FG.
  • This is kind of the same deal as ever. Achane probably won't get many dive plays from the 1-yard line, but he gets all other kinds of touches near the end zone.
  • It appears Jaylen Wright was only getting work in the previous game because Gordon hurt his ankle the week before. With Gordon feeling better, he was the clear No. 2 RB.

Chargers (6) at Jaguars (35) 

Chargers Personnel: 11 - 87% / 12 - 2% / 21 - 7%

45 Plays — 32 DBs — 8.4 aDOT — 13-of-26 for 118 yards — 0 TD, 1 INT, 3 sacks, 3 scrambles

• The Chargers ran just 45 plays, unable to sustain drives or stop Jacksonville from running the ball.
  • The extreme negative game script predictably led to more playing time for Keenan Allen and less for Tucker Fisk / Scott Matlock.
  • QB Justin Herbert, WR Ladd McConkey and RB Kimani Vidal were all pulled early, playing just 1-2 snaps in the fourth quarter, whereas Allen, Oronde Gadsden and Quentin Johnston stayed in the game.
    • Vidal took 71% of snaps and seven of 10 RB opportunities before the fourth quarter. That's a far cry from his 94% snap share and 26 touches in the previous game, but it's a lot better than the final numbers suggest.
    • Don't drop Vidal over the bye. We don't actually know for sure that Omarion Hampton (ankle) will be ready for Week 13. 

Jaguars Personnel: 11 - 57% / 12 - 17% / 6OL - 25%

69 Plays — 24 DBs — 9 aDOT — 14-of-22 for 153 yards — 1 TD, 1 INT, 0 sacks, 2 scrambles

• RB Bhayshul Tuten had his largest role of the season before exiting with an ankle injury in the fourth quarter.
  • Tuten told reporters he's fine, for what it's worth. He may have just suffered a minor sprain that wouldn't have prevented him from returning to a closer game. I do want to caution that this was an odd game, with the Jaguars completely dominating possession and piling up an unusual number of rush attempts. Etienne might well have taken a larger share of the touches if there'd been fewer to go around. Sunday's performance was a good sign for Tuten, of course, but Etienne has been better and is clearly far more trusted with all RB tasks besides running the ball.
  • Tuten and Etienne essentially formed a 50/50 timeshare for the first three quarters, with LeQuint Allen subbing in for 3rd-and-longs. Both Tuten and Etienne had at least 36% snap share and multiple touches in each of the first three quarters.
  • Tuten then played just one snap in the fourth quarter before exiting with an ankle injury.
  • Before the fourth quarter, Tuten was at 43% snap share with 14 of 28 RB opportunities. Etienne was at 49% snap share, with the other 14 opportunities, while Allen took just four snaps due to Jacksonville avoiding clear passing situations.
• WR Parker Washington led the team in route share but was targeted just twice. The scam may end soon, but he's still a reasonable lineup choice in deep leagues.
• WR Jakobi Meyers got more playing time in his second game with Jacksonville, approaching full-time status at 64% snap share and 82% route share on a run-heavy afternoon for the offense.
  • Meyers also led the team in targets (six), air yards (57) and receiving yards (64).
  • Tim Patrick, who scored a TD, will presumably be the odd man out when Brian Thomas is ready to return from his high ankle injury.

Panthers (30) at Falcons (27) 

Panthers Personnel: 11 - 63% / 12 - 19% / 13 - 12%

75 Plays — 50 DBs — 6.9 aDOT — 31-of-45 for 448 yards — 3 TDs, 0 INT, 5 sacks, 0 scrambles

• RB Rico Dowdle played 83% of snaps, his most yet in a game with Chubba Hubbard active. Dowdle didn't score a TD, but he had 100 total yards and accounted for 26 of the 34 RB opportunities (76%).
• WR Xavier Legette got in on the fun in Bryce Young's best game yet, but Legette suffered a hip injury in the fourth quarter and didn't play during overtime.
• WR Tetairoa McMillan finally turned his dominant shares into dominant production. It helped that the Panthers fell behind 21-7, but they also had nine QB dropbacks on a 12-play opening TD drive. 

Falcons Personnel: 11 - 53% / 12 - 40%

58 Plays — 31 DBs — 8.1 aDOT — 19-of-30 for 223 yards — 0 TD, 0 INT, 0 sacks, 1 scramble

• QB Michael Penix re-injured his knee in the third quarter and missed the rest of the game. He's reportedly in danger of missing multiple games.
  • Penix is being placed on IR, likely out for the season.
• WR Drake London suffered a PCL injury toward the end of the game and is now expected to miss at least Week 12.
  • WR Darnell Mooney hasn't done anything this season, with reports suggesting a broken collarbone suffered this summer has been a factor. However, he had the best fantasy stretch of his career with Cousins under center last season, and Mooney finished Sunday's game with 104 air yards on seven targets.
    • It may not be efficient, but Mooney figures to see plenty of air yards and targets now. He's back in play as a fantasy WR3, at least while London is out. 
• TE Kyle Pitts also gets a boost in target share projection with London out. Pitts' 2025 results with Cousins were far from encouraging, but the tight end accounts for a team-high 12 of Cousins' 51 targets (23.5%) this year.
  • WR KhaDarel Hodge has the second-most Cousins targets (nine), with eight of those coming in a 34-10 loss to Miami back in Week 7 when London was inactive due to a different injury.
• RB Bijan Robinson got his first inside-the-five carries since Week 1, scoring twice on three chances — an obvious affront to Tyler Allgeier's fantasy managers.

Buccaneers (32) at Bills (44) 

Buccaneers Personnel: 11 - 66% / 12 - 24%

68 Plays — 33 DBs — 7.5 aDOT — 16-of-28 for 173 yards — 1 TD, 1 INT, 1 sack, 4 scrambles

• RBs Sean Tucker and Rachaad White split work early in the game, with the following workload shares after Tucker's 43-yard TD run with 5:37 left in the second quarter:
  • White: 67% snaps, 7 carries, 2 targets, 48 total yards
  • Tucker: 37% snaps, 6 carries, 0 targets, 57 total yards (TD)
• Tucker took on a dominant share of the rushing workload after his long run, with 13 carries and two targets (with two more TDs) on 50% snap share, while White got just three carries and one target on 55% of snaps.
  • Tucker didn't play the final drive, with Tampa down by two scores at the end. If you ignore that last drive, Tucker took 60% of snaps after his long run, getting 15 of 18 RB opportunities and scoring two more TDs.
    • Tucker usually impresses when given the chance, and his strong performance could lead to continued involvement even when Bucky Irving (shoulder/toe) is back, which would improve Irving's odds of staying relatively healthy. Irving returned to practice last week and could be back as soon as Sunday night against the Rams. Chris Godwin (fibula) seemingly has a chance to return as well, replacing either Sterling Shepard or Tez Johnson (who got shut down this past Sunday at Buffalo).

Bills Personnel: 11 - 62% / 12 - 17% / 21 - 15%

53 Plays — 31 DBs — 10.4 aDOT — 18-of-29 for 295 yards — 3 TDs, 2 INTs, 0 sacks, 2 scrambles

• With Keon Coleman a healthy scratch and TE Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) also inactive, the Bills had five different WRs in the range of 40-53% snap share and 43-63% route share.
  • Each of the five WRs drew 3-5 targets. Tyrell Shavers scored on a deep ball to give him the best stat line (and the most air yards), but that won't necessarily mean anything in terms of the playing time distribution going forward, especially after old/new friend Gabe Davis had a solid 2025 debut with 3-40-0 on four targets. 
  • Khalil Shakir is the only Buffalo WR that's startable for Week 12, but Davis/Palmer/Shavers might be worth a look in deep leagues.
• TE Dawson Knox easily led the team in route share (87%) but was targeted just three times.
• QB Josh Allen reminded us not to count him out of the MVP race, though it probably requires winning the division when Drake Maye is one of the favorites.

Bengals (12) at Steelers (34) 

Bengals Personnel: 11 - 71% / 12 - 24%

63 Plays — 41 DBs — 7.1 aDOT — 23-of-40 for 199 yards — 1 TD, 1 INT, 1 sack, 0 scrambles

• With Samaje Perine (high-ankle sprain) inactive, RB Chase Brown played 83% of snaps and took 24 of 27 RB opportunities.
  •  Tahj Brooks and Kendall Milton both subbed in a few times, but Brown and other starters played on the final drive, down by 22 points, allowing Brown to take three touches for 12 yards in garbage time (but fall one yard shy of the 100-yard bonus on DraftKings).
• WR Ja'Marr Chase will be suspended for Week 12 after allegedly spitting on Jalen Ramsey.
  • Tee Higgins and Andrei Iosivas get big boosts in target share, with Mitchell Tinsley the favorite to take on most of Chase's snaps. The tight ends could also benefit some, though they all finished below 50% route share, again.

Steelers Personnel: 11 - 23% / 12 - 30% / 13 - 22% / 6OL - 22%

60 Plays — 33 DBs — 4.1 aDOT — 21-of-31 for 243 yards — 2 TDs, 0 INT, 1 sack, 1 scramble

• QB Aaron Rodgers injured his left wrist and was replaced by Mason Rudolph.
  • Early reports suggested Rodgers would miss at least one game, but NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said Monday morning that it's more like 50/50 (to play Week 12 against Chicago).
• RB Jaylen Warren missed the final 25 minutes of the game with an ankle injury. He told reporters he could've played if necessary, for whatever that's worth.
  • Kenneth Gainwell had a larger-than-usual role even before Warren's injury, with 59% of snaps, six carries and four targets before Warren left the game (Warren had 10 carries and two targets on 44% of snaps at the time of his departure). It looked like pretty close to a 50/50 split, which is a huge difference from what we saw the past few weeks.
  • After Warren left, Gainwell played 71% of snaps and took three carries and four targets for 66 yards and a TD, while Kaleb Johnson played 33% of snaps and took five carries for 15 yards.
  • Gainwell's first TD came on the opening drive, getting back-to-back touches in the red zone when Warren was subbed out after a winding, 35-yard run. It is possible Gainwell would've gotten those snaps/touches anyway, but fatigue ensured Warren came out of the game there.
• WR Calvin Austin plummeted to 23% snap share and 34% route share (down from 74% and 85% in the previous game), including just 52% of snaps in 11 personnel.
  • WR Roman Wilson and TE Darnell Washington both picked up some snaps, and Washington gave us one of the cooler plays of the season. He's a fun stash for dynasty, but it still appears highly unlikely for any one Pittsburgh tight end to capture enough target share for mainstream redraft value.

Packers (27) at Giants (20) 

Packers Personnel: 11 - 51% / 12 - 35% / 6OL - 10%

51 Plays — 29 DBs — 12.5 aDOT — 15-of-26 for 180 yards — 3 TDs, 0 INT, 2 sacks, 1 scramble

• RB Josh Jacobs injured his knee in the first quarter, and after initially trying to play, he missed the final 43 minutes of the game.
  • Emanuel Wilson played 94% of snaps over the last 43 minutes, taking 12 touches for 49 yards and a TD while third-stringer Chris Brooks took just 9% of snaps.
  • Jacobs reportedly just suffered a knee contusion, giving him a chance to play Week 12 against Minnesota.
• QB Jordan Love left the game briefly with a shoulder injury but returned to finish out the contest and throw the winning TD.
• WR Matthew Golden returned from a shoulder injury but finished just fourth among Green Bay WRs in snap and route share, both below 40%. However, he had 90 air yards on his three targets, including a 24-yard gain on his lone catch.
• TE Luke Musgrave dropped into a timeshare with Josh Whyle (who scored a TD on his lone target) and John FitzPatrick. They each finished with 1 or 2 targets on 25-39% route share.

Giants Personnel: 11 - 54% / 12 - 33%

69 Plays — 31 DBs — 7.5 aDOT — 19-of-29 for 201 yards — 0 TD, 1 INT, 2 sacks, 0 scrambles

• RBs Tyrone Tracy and Devin Singletary were in a near-50/50 timeshare, with a slight advantage for Tracy in a game where the Giants mostly led and the RBs combined for 35 carries (not something likely to repeat anytime soon).
  • It's changed a bit from week to week, but this has generally been a 1A/1B situation since Cam Skattebo's injury, with neither RB an attractive option but both being startable when absolutely needed.
• With WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) inactive, WRs Isaiah Hodgins and Jalin Hyatt both topped 80% route share and 50 air yards.
  • Hodgins put up 5-57-0 on six targets, while Hyatt caught two passes for 18 yards on four targets.
    • Hodgins had a stretch of WR3 production on Brian Daboll's Giants a few years ago, late in the season when everyone else was injured. This could end up being a similar thing, minus Daboll, if Slayton misses extended time. I'd guess WR4/5 more so than WR3, but it's worth a look in some deep leagues.

Bears (19) at Vikings (17) 

Bears Personnel: 11 - 27% / 12 - 42% / 13 - 11% / 6OL - 12%

73 Plays — 36 DBs — 10.8 aDOT — 16-of-32 for 193 yards — 0 TD, 0 INT, 2 sacks, 2 scrambles

• This was a nightmare for fantasy, with six WR/TEs drawing 3-6 targets and two RBs getting double-digit carries. Rome Odunze saw a ton of looks earlier this season, but we've since seen this sort of offense in most games since September, with a flat volume distribution that's working out okay for the RBs (but not pass catchers) against a favorable stretch of the schedule.
  • Since a Week 5 bye, Odunze's 21.4% target share leads the team, followed by DJ Moore (16%), Olamide Zaccheaus (15%), Colston Loveland (14.4%), D'Andre Swift (8%) and Luther Burden (8%).
    • Before the bye, Odunze accounted for 26.7% of targets.
• Zaccheaus nose-dived to 14% snap share and 21% route share, including only 12% of snaps in 11 personnel.
  • Luther Burden took 85% of snaps in 11 personnel, finishing with season-high 62% route share despite only 21% of the snaps in Chicago's most commonly used grouping (12 personnel).
  • It's a step forward for Burden, but serious fantasy value will be difficult unless he takes more snaps away from Moore/Odunze in the two-TE sets.

Vikings Personnel: 11 - 70% / 12 - 19% / 21 - 11%

54 Plays — 32 DBs — 9.3 aDOT — 16-of-32 for 150 yards — 1 TD, 2 INTs, 0 sacks, 0 scrambles

• QB J.J. McCarthy continues to be a disaster for the fantasy value of all his teammates, except maybe Aaron Jones, who got 22 of 28 RB opportunities on 67% snap share, though Jordan Mason did have a bunch of nice runs in the second half, including his 16-yard TD.

68 Plays — 47 DBs — 8.6 aDOT — 26-of-41 for 274 yards — 1 TD, 0 INT, 4 sacks, 2 scrambles

• RB Woody Marks dominated backfield work for a second straight week, taking 66% of snaps and 19 of 25 RB opportunities (76%). He didn't do anything with the touches, but it's the kind of workload that usually equates to RB2 fantasy status even for an ordinary player in a struggling offense.
• WR Jayden Higgins had a similar role to the week before, with seven targets and 101 air yards (4-55-0 receiving) while still not quite being full-time (60% snaps, 58% routes).
  • WR snaps/route shares were largely the same as the week before.

Titans Personnel: 11 - 61% / 12 - 33%

57 Plays — 43 DBs — 7.1 aDOT — 24-of-37 for 194 yards — 1 TD, 0 INT, 3 sacks, 3 scrambles

• WR Calvin Ridley suffered a broken fibula in his first game back from a hamstring injury.
  • Ridley is out for the season, and Chimere Dike (head/chest) also made an early exit.
• WR Van Jefferson replaced Ridley and ended up leading the team in route share (93%) and targets (seven) while scoring the lone touchdown.
  • WR Elic Ayomanor was second with 85% route share, but he and Cam Ward haven't found any success of late, and Sunday was no different with just 11 yards from six targets and 71 air yards.
  • WR Mason Kinsey filled in alongside Ayomanor and Jefferson, catching one pass for 14 yards on three targets.

49ers (41) at Cardinals (22) 

49ers Personnel: 11 - 21% / 12 - 25% / 21 - 52%

52 Plays — 28 DBs — 7.9 aDOT — 19-of-26 for 200 yards — 3 TDs, 0 INT, 1 sack, 1 scramble

• RB Brian Robinson had a role, but two of his eight carries came at the very end in garbage time, after McCaffrey had sealed the game with his third TD of the afternoon on his 18th touch.
  • Before the final drive, McCaffrey played 78% of snaps and took 19 of 26 RB opportunities. That's similar to Week 10, and not quite as strong as his workload dominance early in the season, but it might not matter with the 49ers getting an efficiency boost overall as they become healthier.
• WR Ricky Pearsall got 73% of snaps and 85% route share in his first game since September, but he finished with just one catch for no gain on three targets (27 air yards).
  • TE George Kittle, meanwhile, had a second straight big game, scoring twice on a team-high-tying six targets (Jauan Jennings and McCaffrey also got six looks).

Cardinals Personnel: 11 - 61% / 12 - 18% / 6OL - 13%

71 Plays — 57 DBs — 6.5 aDOT — 47-of-57 for 452 yards — 2 TDs, 2 INTs, 0 sacks, 0 scrambles

• QB Jacoby Brissett completed an NFL-record 47 passes on 57 attempts, with each of Michael Wilson, Trey McBride and Greg Dortch putting up a huge stat line.
  • Brissett avoided sacks, scrambles and throwaways, with 57 dropbacks yielding 56 targets.
• OT Kelvin Beachum was filling in for Jonah Williams (shoulder) at right tackle but then left the game with a groin injury, which put undrafted rookie Josh Fryar into the lineup at RT.
• WR Michael Wilson went full Tre Tucker, putting up one of the most impressive receiving lines of the 2025 season after multiple years as a starter marked by occasional big plays and consistently poor target volume/rates. 
  • That said, I'm more optimistic about Wilson than I was about Tucker (after Tucker's huge game earlier this season). For the short term, Wilson's situation is obviously better, with Marvin Harrison (appendix) likely to miss multiple games and nobody else on the roster offering any sort of meaningful competition for WR snaps. Long term, Wilson is highly unlikely to be a fantasy star, but more likely than Tucker to stick around as a quality NFL starter. Tucker was a one-game wonder. Wilson might be too, but I think there's at least some small chance we end up looking back on Sunday's game as a genuine breakthrough.
• WR Greg Dortch put up 6-66-1 with season highs for snap and route share, but his six targets work out to just a 10.7% share of the team total. Wilson, Trey McBride and the RBs accounted for 77% of Arizona's targets.
• The league's most annoying backfield got yet another twist, with Michael Carter reintroduced after Emari Demercado suffered an ankle injury in the second quarter.
  • After halftime, Carter played 65% of snaps and got two carries and four targets, while Bam Knight played 35% of snaps with one carry and three targets. That was with the Cardinals down big, but Knight also got fewer carries (four) than Demercado (five) before the latter left the game.

Seahawks (19) at Rams (21) 

Seahawks Personnel: 11 - 51% / 12 - 23% / 21 - 13% / 22 - 10%

79 Plays — 45 DBs — 8.6 aDOT — 29-of-44 for 279 yards — 0 TD, 4 INTs, 0 sacks, 1 scramble

• RB Kenneth Walker had 19 touches (his most since Week 4) and 111 total yards (his most since Week 2), with a one-yard TD shortly before the two-minute warning that cut LA's lead to two points.
• WR Cooper Kupp played 100% of snaps in 11 personnel, while Rashid Shaheed was at 77% and also got less playing time in 12 personnel (30%).
  • Shaheed still had a solid route share (73%) because he was mostly off the field for run plays, regardless of personnel grouping. His five targets were fourth-most on the team, behind Kupp, JSN and AJ Barner
• Rookie left guard Grey Zabel, a first-round pick, suffered a knee injury late in the fourth quarter. He was down on the field for a couple of minutes after his leg got rolled up on, and he then missed the final drive of the game. It didn't look good.

Rams Personnel: 11 - 64% / 13 - 36%

50 Plays — 28 DBs — 5.4 aDOT — 15-of-28 for 130 yards — 2 TDs, 0 INT, 0 sacks, 0 scrambles

• RB Kyren Williams played well but once again lost way too many touches to Blake Corum to maintain the fantasy value from 2023-24.
  • Corum has nine-plus touches in four straight games, though the per-touch numbers look ugly after Sunday's dud (five total yards).
• WR Puka Nacua was excellent apart from a lost fumble, but the lack of playing time in three-TE sets again impacted his route/target shares.
  • Nacua has four straight games with eight or fewer targets, after getting at least nine targets in each of the first four games.
• WR Davante Adams handled his usual role but may have been impacted by the oblique injury, catching just one of eight targets against a tough defense. He did score a one-yard TD on the lone catch.
• TE Tyler Higbee suffered an ankle injury. Colby Parkinson has been making big plays recently, but the snaps would likely be divided between Parkinson, Davis Allen and Terrance Ferguson if Higbee were to miss time.
  • Ferguson and Higbee usually split snaps in 13 personnel, while Parkinson and Allen play all of those snaps (but not a whole lot otherwise). In 11 personnel, Higbee usually gets half or more of the snaps, with Parkinson and Ferguson mixing in some. In other words, Ferguson and Parkinson would both figure to benefit from a Higbee absence with larger snap/route share.

Ravens (23) at Browns (16) 

Ravens Personnel: 11 - 33% / 12 - 35% / 21 - 22% / 22 - 10%

60 Plays — 32 DBs — 7.9 aDOT — 14-of-25 for 193 yards — 0 TD, 2 INTs, 5 sacks, 2 scrambles

• WR DeAndre Hopkins had season highs for snap share (68%) and route share (70%) with Rashod Bateman inactive due to an ankle injury, but Hopkins finished with just one catch for 11 yards on four targets.
• TE Mark Andrews tied for the team lead in targets and scored a 35-yard TD on a fake-sneak bootleg type deal (if you didn't see it). I knew the role on sneaks would eventually get him a touchdown, but I thought it would happen more conventionally.
• RB Keaton Mitchell got a role boost with Justice Hill (foot) inactive, but Rasheen Ali also took on a bunch of the pass snaps, limiting any potential excitement.
  • Mitchell's stats look nice, but the one incomplete target bounced out of his hands and into a defender's.

Browns Personnel: 11 - 50% / 12 - 44%

54 Plays — 33 DBs — 7.4 aDOT — 11-of-26 for 115 yards — 0 TD, 1 INT, 3 sacks, 4 scrambles

• QB Dillon Gabriel suffered a concussion and missed the second half, opening the door for Shedeur Sanders to take his first snaps.
  • Sanders completed four of 16 passes and generally looked overmatched.
• The Browns lost both starting OTs to injuries, though RT Jack Conklin (knee) didn't get hurt until late in the game.
  • OT injuries have been one of the few consistent things in Cleveland in recent years.
