Question

Among quarterbacks who started at least half of last year, who averaged a league-low 10.1 yards per completion? Not one of the first dozen quarterbacks that most would guess.

Answer

Kirk Cousins. He averaged 269 passing yards per game, but most of his completions were shorter balls underneath. Most notably, Stefon Diggs caught 102 passes but averaged only 10.0 yards per completion. Adam Thielen averaged 12.2 yards per catch – down almost 2 yards from the previous season.
