Al Golden coordinates a 4-3 defense with a 17.1% blitz rate and zone-heavy coverage. This scheme type may limit Ivey’s ceiling due to the high blitz rate.
Trend Assessment
Stable. DJ Ivey’s snap share trended up in the second half of the season, but his overall stability is tempered by his Verdict Production grade at the 14th percentile.
