Understanding These Stats▼
Rushing
Att — Rushing attempts (carries).
Yds — Rushing yards.
TD — Rushing touchdowns.
Y/A — Yards per carry — rushing yards ÷ carries. The core rushing efficiency rate; 4.5+ is solid, 5+ is elite.
TD% — Touchdown rate per carry (TDs ÷ carries × 100) — measures scoring efficiency per touch independent of volume. Red-zone workhorses lead here.
1D — First downs gained on rushing plays.
1D% — First-down conversion rate (first downs ÷ carries × 100) — how often a carry moves the chains. Top RBs convert on 25%+ of attempts.
Fmb — Rushing fumbles lost — the key ball-security stat for running backs. Below 1 per season is elite.
Receiving
Tgt — Targets — how many times the receiver was thrown to, regardless of completion.
Rec — Receptions — catches made.
Yds — Receiving yards.

TD — Receiving touchdowns.
Ctch% — Catch rate — receptions ÷ targets × 100. Measures how reliably a receiver turns opportunities into gains. 70%+ is elite.
Y/R — Yards per reception — receiving yards ÷ receptions. Measures big-play ability; 15+ is elite for WRs.
Y/Tgt — Yards per target — receiving yards ÷ targets. The single most complete receiving efficiency metric: accounts for both drops and incomplete targets. Elite receivers post 8+ yards per target.
AirYd/T — Air yards per target — average depth of route at time of target. High values indicate a deep threat role; low values indicate a slot/check-down role.
1D — First downs gained on receiving plays.
Defense
Tkl / Solo / Ast — Combined tackles (Solo + ½ Assist). Solo = unassisted. Ast = helped by a teammate.
TFL — Tackles for loss — stops made behind the line of scrimmage (run stuffs + QB contain).
QBHits — QB hits — any legal contact on the quarterback, including but beyond sacks (hurries that land).
Sk — Sacks — tackled the QB behind the line for a loss. Half-sacks shared between defenders.
Dis — Disruption plays = sacks + QB hits + TFL. The composite pass-rush / run-stop impact stat for one season. Elite pass rushers post 30+ disruption plays per season.
Sfty — Safeties — tackled the ball carrier in their own end zone.
Snap Counts (2012–present)
Off / Off% — Offensive snaps played and share of team total. The most reliable usage metric for skill positions and OL.
Def / Def% — Defensive snaps played and share of team total.
ST / ST% — Special-teams snaps played and share of team total.
Proprietary StatVault Metrics
KV-H (Knox Value-Historical) — Era-normalized career rating 0–100 within position group, calibrated so a 50 = average starter and 90+ = all-time great. Covers 1999–present. Built on a 5-year IQR/robust-std era window.
SIS (Snap Impact Score) — Per-snap production z-scored within position group and era (2012+). Measures how much a player produced per opportunity, not raw volume.
VORP (Value Over Replacement) — Sum of max(0, season KV-H − positional replacement level) across a career. Measures career value above the minimum-roster baseline at each position.
Durability IQ — 0–100 score reflecting how many games a player played relative to peers at the same position in the same era. Adjusts for injury-shortened seasons.
