THE SHAPE OF HIS 2025 SEASON
His 2025 weeks were not evenly spread. The best was 89 receiving yards in Week 2 against NO; the quietest was 7 in Week 6 against TB. He finished above his own 43-per-game average in 5 of 15 games.
He accounted for at least one touchdown in 8 of 15 games, and more than one in 1 of them. Scoring is the most volatile part of any projection, so a record built on a handful of multi-score weeks reads differently from one spread evenly.
His longest single play on record in 2025 went for 42 yards. That single play is worth about 98% of an average game for him, which is the difference between a total built on steady volume and one that depends on a single play landing.
His role moved during the season: roughly 76% of snaps across his first 4 recorded games, then 85% across his last 4 — a rising share. Role changes travel into the next season more reliably than yardage does.
Across those games he handled 90 targets and no carries on record.
