A dash means the panel holds no qualifying figure for that player — usually too few games or attempts to clear the metric's floor, not a zero. Ranks are the source's own, against the population shown, and run through the same week as the figures. Not shown, because the panel holds no 2026 through Week 8 figure for either player: Finish, Games, Snap share, Availability.

Jahmyr Gibbs: VOLATILEAshton Jeanty: REPEATABLE

Jahmyr Gibbs's edge sits in rushing yards over expected, rushing yards over expected per attempt and receiving expected points added — efficiency rather than opportunity, and the file measures that as the less repeatable half. Ashton Jeanty leads on share of his team's offensive snaps and rushing attempts — the inputs that have historically carried from one season to the next. Of the two, Ashton Jeanty's season rests on the steadier ground. That is a statement about what each man's production was built on, not a running order — and it is a description of 2025, not a forecast of 2026.

“Repeats” is measured year-over-year persistence across 2016 to 2025 — opportunity carries between seasons, scoring rate largely does not. This describes what a 2025 season was built on. It is not a forecast, and Muffed publishes no projections, draft grades or start/sit advice. How we measure it.
