What happened: The minimum threshold is 10 targets this season. Gonzalez sits second at 35.3%, followed by Woolen at 36.4%. Masses and Blackmon are tied fourth at 42.9%.
Why it matters: Catch rate allowed measures how often targeted coverage turns into completions. A sub-25% mark separates the leader from the rest of the qualifiers by more than 12 points. Blackmon remains a free agent after an Aug. 26 waiver.
By the numbers: McDuffie 23.1%, Gonzalez 35.3%, Woolen 36.4%, Masses 42.9%, Blackmon 42.9% (min. 10 targets).
What to watch: Watch whether the leaders hold those marks as target volume grows beyond 10. Heavier passing schedules will test the early efficiency.
