WAR and PAL Rating, 2021

How we rate →

Half the EPA of his sacks, interceptions, passes defended, forced fumbles, tackles for loss and QB hits, against his position's average per snap.

Coverage0.00

Yards allowed per target against his position's average, 0.12 points per yard (measured).

Position share+0.09

Replacement level: the share of defense the league spends on his position (by payroll), prorated by snaps.

Team defense−0.04
