Scheme Fit Analysis
Kyle Shanahan coordinates a shanahan_tree offense with a 14.6% play-action rate. This scheme can help Brayden Willis’s production by providing opportunities for play-action passes, but his limited usage in 2025 suggests he may be a rotational player.

His production declined significantly in 2025, with zero receiving yards and targets in 16 games, and his dynasty score reflects this downward trend.
Ceiling / Floor
