Emeka Egbuka's underwhelming box score (5-63) undersells the role: 96.9% route participation and a team-high 65.6% air yard share (13.8 aDOT) point to a real downfield role behind Irving's short-area volume. True targets are 7, not 6 - but that 7th target was a near-disaster: A pass that was nearly intercepted, saved only by a DPI call.

Egbuka's 96.9% route rate and 65.6% air yard share reveal a real downfield role.

Egbuka's underwhelming box score (5-63) undersells his role: 96.9% route participation and a team-high 65.6% air yard share (13.8 aDOT) point to a real downfield role. True targets are 7, not 6 as box score shows, though the 7th target was a near-disaster pass that was nearly intercepted and saved only by a DPI call. He is a legitimate deep-ball complement behind Irving's short-area volume.
