Tampa Bay Buccaneers

This is a committee. Emeka Egbuka holds 21.0% of the targets, and the 14 tracked pass-catchers project for 23 receptions and 219 receiving yards in week 4.

Who owns the targets

Trailing target share, largest first. Target share reproduces at 0.92 between halves of a season, so this is a stable picture of the pecking order rather than a snapshot of one good game.

The ground game

Projected for 18 carries and 72 rushing yards, with Bucky Irving taking 82% of the work. Carries per game is the second most repeatable thing a player has — 0.97 between halves of a season — so a backfield split holds up far better than a touchdown rate does.

Whose role has changed since last season

Snap share this season against last, for anyone who has moved at least six points. This is the input the model leans on hardest early in a year, because snap share is already reliable at 0.84 after two games while receptions manage 0.66.
