in miles per hour (MPH), a player achieves on a given
play when carrying the ball on offense (rusher, passer, or
receiver) or special teams (punt or kick returner). This stat
highlights many of the fastest players in the league.
Longest Plays (Ball Carriers)

farthest during a given play (measured in yards) regardless
of yards gained. This stat highlights ball carriers that use
the whole field.
Fastest Sacks

moment the ball is snapped to the moment a defender
sacks the quarterback. Represented in seconds, Fastest

in the League.
Longest Tackles
A defensive player's hustle can go unnoticed on the field.

a defender covered on a play to make a tackle. This stat
reveals players who don't give up on plays and can also
indicate players who can truly cover "sideline to sideline."
