How to read these numbers
- Games are the games Austin Hooper played. When a player played but the box score lists no line for a stat family (for example, no receiving line), that game counts as zero, not as missing.
- Season tables are regular-season games only. The game log includes playoff games, labeled, and reaches into last season when this season has fewer than 10 games.
- A dash (–) means the statistic is not recorded for that game, never zero (hover it for the reason). A column with no recorded value is left out.
This page shows box-score statistics and results only. It contains no sportsbook prices or betting lines. Current markets, hit rates against the line and StatsNext research are in the app.
