• Ted Hurst III (WR): 9% of the team's targets before; estimated +3.2 points → about 13%. Value pressure: little change.
• How it is estimated: Teammates tend to pick up part of his share of the team's targets and carries, depending on their position and how big their role already is (averages from 2022–25 games). Tested on past seasons, the named teammates did see more work in about 6 of 10 cases, and the size was right on average. A Questionable tag does not mean he plays. Small roles often see no change.
