From the article

Zaccheaus has just 4 receptions on 11 targets for 17 yards, versus 9 receptions on 10 targets for 55 yards for Branch. OZ can be a sparkplug, but hasn't been yet this season, and yet is handily outsnapping a player (144 snaps to 89) who is a more dangerous receiving threat in Branch.

Zaccheaus underperforming (4 rec, 17 yards) while outsnapping superior receiver Branch.

Zaccheaus has just 4 receptions on 11 targets for 17 yards through this game, significantly underperforming compared to Zachariah Branch who has 9 receptions on 10 targets for 55 yards. Despite being a more dangerous receiving threat, Branch is being outsnapped 144 to 89 snaps, indicating a snap allocation mismatch. The source notes Zaccheaus hasn't been a sparkplug this season and questions whether he needs to be more involved as a pass catcher or cede more playing time to Branch, as he isn't a far-and-away better blocking option either.
