What we’re scoring

Arian playing a lot is a definite future usage forecast requiring a ruling; WR2 is only on the table and is not extracted as a definite starting role.

The ruling

Smith recorded seven receptions for 52 yards in 2025. Playing a lot specifies no snap share or appearance threshold; catches cannot substitute for total usage. Starting WR2 is only presented as a possibility.

    The source independently projects a large deep-threat role. Link the earlier June 2 substantial-usage family after the peer amendment publishes; no receiving or snap cutoff is invented.

    Later definite substantial-usage statement in the same Arian role family. Present Johnson roster-fit assessment and current receiver comparisons are supporting opinion, not another negative Johnson outcome.
