The season, game by game
Why it matters. A season average can hide a player who is great one week and absent the next; game by game shows how dependable he is. Over 9 games, Mitchell Robinson Jr.'s best came in week 6 against Florida A&M and his quietest in week 4 against Mississippi Valley State.
Where he does his damage
Why it matters. Where and how a player makes his plays shows how his team uses him and what a defense has to take away.
National and conference
Why it matters. A national rank shows how a player stacks up beyond his own league, where the competition can be very different. Mitchell Robinson Jr. is 150th of 471 FCS linebackers and 12th of 44 in the SWAC. Next up nationally is Christian Barney of Incarnate Word, 0.01 ahead on the index.
Linebackers like him
Why it matters. Comparing a player with his closest statistical matches puts his season in context beyond the rankings. His closest match this season is Jes Krcil of South Dakota State.
