If Jalen Nailor is out, who gets his targets?
The Las Vegas Raiders room absorbs +1.06 receptions, and Cody White takes the largest single share at +0.22. The work stays overwhelmingly inside the wide receiver room.
Where the work goes
Change in projected receptions for every other player in the offense. The bars are small on purpose — a vacated role is shared out, and any tool showing one replacement absorbing a whole target load is telling you something the data does not support.
Every player in the room
| Player | Now | If out | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Michael Mayer TE · 82% snaps | 3.60 | 3.60 | +0.00 |
| Ashton Jeanty RB · 78% snaps | 3.40 | 3.40 | +0.00 |
| Tre Tucker WR · 65% snaps | 3.40 | 3.61 | +0.21 |
| Jalen Nailor WR · 60% snaps | 2.40 | — | OUT |
| Jack Bech WR · 47% snaps | 2.00 | 2.21 | +0.21 |
| Ian Thomas TE · 48% snaps | 1.10 | 1.10 | +0.00 |
| Malik Benson WR · 12% snaps | 0.70 | 0.91 | +0.21 |
| Dareke Young WR · 17% snaps | 0.60 | 0.81 | +0.21 |
| Cody White WR · 0% snaps | 0.50 | 0.72 | +0.22 |
What the data says happens
Measured across every regular-season game from 2018 onward, each beneficiary compared against his own trailing four-game form and net of what the same players do in weeks the room’s number one actually plays.
| Room | Receptions gained | n | t |
|---|---|---|---|
| Receivers | +0.584 | 1,537 | 11.16 |
| Tight ends | +0.175 | 1,080 | 3.33 |
| Backs | +0.113 | 1,011 | 2.00 |
The room total is predictable. Which player takes it is not. Every candidate predictor of who gains — pecking order, snap share, route depth, trailing targets — correlates at roughly r = 0.02. In any single week one player usually takes about 60% of what was vacated; it is simply not predictably the same one.
