No stat correlates more closely with Fantasy scoring at the RB position than snap rate.
A player's route involvement rate simply represents the percentage of the team's total dropbacks on which that player ran a route. So, the running backs listed above ran a route on at least 59 percent of their team's dropbacks through four weeks. Running routes is the first step towards drawing targets, which is key to unlocking Fantasy upside at the RB position.
Let's dig into the full data on Week 6 usage rates.
