Detected role shifts

  • Jaylen Wright rose from 4.8 to 12.0 touches/game starting week 14 — and De'Von Achane fell from 21.5 to 16.2 over the same stretch.

A shift is flagged when one player gained 3+ touches/game and a teammate lost 3+ across the same split week — descriptive, not causal: injuries, trades and game script all move touches.

Methodology: computed from nflverse play-by-play; a quarter's yards are the yards gained on plays snapped in that quarter. Averages use each player's games played, not team games. Updated 2026-10-29.
