Snap share

Snap share is the percentage of his team's offensive plays a player was on the field for. In 2025, Christian McCaffrey of the 49ers led all running backs at 84.3% on 898 snaps; Tre Tucker of the Raiders led receivers at 94.7%.

Count the offensive plays a player was on the field for, divide by his team's total offensive plays. It comes from the participation charting, which lists all eleven players on every snap. It measures presence, not production.

Why it matters

Snap share is the earliest signal that a role is changing, because playing time moves before the box score does. It matters most in backfields: Christian McCaffrey at 84.3% and Jonathan Taylor of the Colts at 82.8% were on the field for most of their offenses, while the median qualifying back sits far below that. Among 432 qualifying skill players, snap share separates a committee from a workhorse a month before the touch counts do. It counts the snap whether he ran a route, blocked, or stood still.

The counter

Being on the field is not being used; a decoy and a focal point post the same snap share.
