A depth / rotational career by KV-H: a remarkably steady profile that scores 27 of 100, era-normalized against rush yds/g peers across 1 scored season, with a short career trimming the score.
Blend 37 × longevity 0.72 = KV-H 27· confidence 88%
Season-by-season quality (era-relative rush yds/g)
Reached 1% of the all-time Receptions leader — a rotational/depth all-time profile at the position.
A 0–100 scale where 100 = matched the all-time leaderat this position. Built only from visible encyclopedia data — career production vs. the all-time leader, plus efficiency (EPA) and comparable-player confidence — so it's a transparent context score, not a subjective rating. Tiers: Elite ≥ 85 · Strong ≥ 65 · Solid ≥ 45 · Depth < 45. Comparable-player confidence: 87%.
Production per snap — the box score normalized by opportunity. SIS is z-scored within running backs, shrinkage-regularized so small samples don't spike, over the NFL snap-count era (2012+).
College stats are not imported for this profile yet.
StatVault has the verified college attribution (Texas-El Paso; TCU), but no parsed college box-score table is present in this profile artifact. The section stays here so every profile has a consistent college-stats landing point without fabricating unavailable rows.
