Returns
Defense
Season lines from CollegeFootballData, regular season and bowls. * That team-season’s player lines are missing part of the team’s yards in our source, so these numbers may be short. Kickoff returns are in our source’s box scores from 2009; before that most are missing, so return totals from those years may leave them out. A dash: the source has no number for that season (often an FCS season), and career totals count only the numbers on file.

Our box scores carry tackles, tackles for loss and sacks from 2016 only, so these come from other sources: cfbstats.com (Open Data Commons Attribution License), its game lines summed (G: the games he has a line in). A dash: the source has no number for it.
On the roster
As each season’s roster listed the player (CollegeFootballData). Classes before the latest listing are counted back from it; “Yr 1” is the year on file where that count can’t place a season he played (a redshirt, transfer or 2020 year); height and weight as last listed.
