Season production
Why it matters. Volume is the first sign of how much a coaching staff trusts a player. His made from 40+, 6, ranks 16th among 143 ranked kickers.
Against every kicker

The season, game by game
Why it matters. Consistency matters to a team: one huge game and five quiet ones is a different season from six solid ones. Over 7 games, Chase Reeves's best came in week 10 at New Mexico State and his quietest in week 2 against Gardner-Webb.
Where he does his damage
Why it matters. The shape of a player's production, not just its size, is what opponents scout.
