Amon-Ra St. Brown 2025 Season in Review

Amon-Ra St. Brown finished 2025 as the number 3 wide receiver in total PPR scoring and the number 4 wide receiver in PPR per game. Elite-tier production — and at this point, his baseline. The identity of his season is simple: he is the centerpiece of one of the best passing offenses in football, and Jared Goff feeds him on a schedule. The Lions missed the playoffs at nine and eight, but that was never an Amon-Ra problem. When this offense hummed, he was the bell cow. When it sputtered, he was the only guy still eating. Seventeen games, eleven touchdowns, and over fourteen hundred receiving yards.

Now let's get into the numbers. St. Brown caught 117 balls on 172 targets for 1,401 yards and 11 touchdowns — a 68 percent catch rate on a 32 percent average target share, with 39 percent of the Lions' air yards. Translation: one of every three Goff throws was going his way, and he was the primary downfield option, not just a possession guy underneath. Goff threw for 4,564 yards and 34 touchdowns — second-most touchdown passes in the league — and St. Brown was the engine. He averaged 19.1 PPR points game to game, with a steady floor: he cleared 13 PPR in twelve of seventeen weeks. The variance lived on the edges. A 41.4-point explosion against the Rams, a 39.2 demolition of the Bears in Week 2 — and on the other end, a zero against Green Bay in Week 13 and a 6.2 in Philadelphia. High floor, top-five ceiling weeks, with a couple of complete misses that drag the average.

The defining shape of the year is right there in the target share. A 32 percent average is genuinely rare air at the position — alpha-one, target-hog territory, the kind of usage that locks in a weekly floor no matter the game script. Pair it with 11 touchdowns on a Lions offense that scored a touchdown on nearly 70 percent of its red zone trips, and you have the recipe for a top-three finish. St. Brown didn't need a fluky year to get here. He just needed the volume he gets every week. Detroit handed it to him.
