Against every defensive back

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 5 games, RJ Hall's best came in week 4 against Florida Atlantic and his quietest in week 1 at Mississippi State.
Where he does his damage
Why it matters. The shape of a player's production, not just its size, is what opponents scout.
