How fantasy points are calculated

Points use common league defaults:

Jahmyr Gibbs: 504 rushing yards = 50.4; 7 rushing touchdowns = 42; 27 receptions = 27; 243 receiving yards = 24.3; 2 receiving touchdowns = 12. Total: 155.7 PPR points.

Fumbles lost are not deducted because the season statistics do not separate lost fumbles from recovered ones. Two-point conversions and return touchdowns are not included. Your league’s settings may differ, so totals can vary from your fantasy app.

Points per game divide the total by games with recorded statistics. Players are listed by their statistical position; fullbacks count as running backs. Equal totals share a rank.
