NFL weekly usage: who got the carries, targets and snaps, team by team
Every team's backfield split and target tree for the week, with the full card one tap away. Every player has a season page, and any two can be compared week by week. Updated the morning after each game day; weeks are kept as posted. Usage, not projections.
What the numbers mean
- RB opportunity share (Opp)
- A back's carries plus targets, as a share of all running back carries and targets on his team.
- Target share and aDOT
- His share of the team's targets, and the average air yards on those targets (how far downfield he is used).
- i10 and 2-min
- Carries plus targets inside the opponent's 10, and with two minutes or less left in either half.
- Snaps and arrows
- Share of the offense's snaps. Arrows show the change in percentage points from the previous week.
- Pass rate over expected
- How much more (or less) often the team threw than an average team would in the same down, distance and score.
- RZ, 3rd tgt, EPA, Succ
- Carries plus targets inside the 20; targets on third down; expected points added per carry or target; the share of them that gained expected points.
- YBC, YAC, drops
- Yards before and after contact per carry, and drops, as charted by Pro Football Reference. They post game by game, usually a day or two after.
- RYOE, 8+box, Sep
- From the league's player tracking (Next Gen Stats): rush yards over what an average back gains from the same spot, the share of carries into eight or more defenders, and a receiver's average separation at the catch point. Only backs with 10+ carries and receivers with 5+ targets are published.
- Garbage time and "No GT"
- Garbage time is the second half with the teams 17 or more points apart, or the last five minutes 9 or more apart: the game is decided, the clock is running, and usage stops meaning much. "No GT" is a player's share with those plays removed; a row shows "3 in garbage time" when three or more of his chances came then. The No GT number is the one that carries into next week.
- xFP and FP
- xFP is what his carries and targets were worth in half-PPR points from where each happened, using 2025 league averages by field position and target depth. FP is what those touches actually scored. Well above xFP is a hot week that tends to cool; well below is usage that has not paid yet.
- EZ
- Targets that reached the end zone: the ball travelled at least as far as the goal line. The cleanest touchdown-regression signal there is.
- Rostered, and "on the wire with a real role"
- The share of ESPN leagues where a player is rostered or started, today. The week view lists players with a real share of their team's work who are still rostered in under half of leagues. Its "Garbage time" column says how many of his chances came then, and his share without them, so a role that only existed in a blowout is visible.
- Where the snaps come from
- Pro Football Reference's counts via nflverse; until that file has the week, Sleeper's snap counts (they agree to the point where we checked). The week line says which.
- What is not here
- Routes run, route share, targets and yards per route run, and slot rate need charted film data that is not free during the season.
Play-by-play and player data from nflverse (CC BY 4.0); snap counts, drops and contact yards from Pro Football Reference and tracking stats from NFL Next Gen Stats, both via nflverse; snap counts also from Sleeper; rostered % and a second play-by-play from ESPN. Two-point tries, kneel-downs and sacks are left out. Made by @BrenBuilds.
