Scouting report
Why it matters. Knowing the one or two things a player does best, and where he is ordinary, says more than any single total. Kamrean Johnson's strongest measure is touchdowns per game at 0.1, 91st of 169 (the average is 0.2). His weakest is target success rate at 27%, 164th of 169 (the average is 51%).
Season production
Why it matters. Totals reward staying healthy and getting the ball; per-game numbers show how much he really carries each week. His receiving yards per game, 8, ranks 161st among 169 ranked tight ends.
Against every tight end
Why it matters. Splitting the measures into how much, how well and how many big plays shows what kind of tight end he is. Among ranked tight ends he sits, on average, in the 11th percentile for volume, 11th for efficiency and 46th for impact.
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 8 games, Kamrean Johnson's best came in week 3 against Miami and his quietest in week 9 against Virginia.
When it matters
Why it matters. Plenty of players produce in easy situations; the ones who keep it up on third down and against good teams are the ones coaches trust.
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. Kamrean Johnson is 157th of 169 FBS tight ends and 25th of 29 in the ACC. Next up nationally is Logan Blake of Rutgers, 0.13 ahead on the index.
Career
Why it matters. Past seasons show whether this year is a breakout, a steady climb or a step back. His best season by the Player Index was 2025 at Wake Forest, 240th of 378 tight ends.
Tight ends 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 Matthew Klopfenstein of Baylor.
