What Are Right-Aligned Receptions?

Right-aligned receptions count the catches a receiver made on plays where he lined up on the offense's right. Read next to Right-Aligned Targets for a catch-rate signal on that side, and next to the left-side board to see whether a receiver's production is genuinely split or concentrated on one side of the field. Left and right are derived from the charted formation order and resolve on about 98% of WR/slot routes; the split is independent of Slot & Perimeter+, and neither axis, nor both together, accounts for a receiver's entire route total.

Which players lead the NFL in right-aligned receptions in 2026?

CeeDee Lamb of Dallas is the 2026 NFL leader in right-aligned receptions at 31, through games played October 30, 2026. Second is Amon-Ra St. Brown of Detroit at 27, then Michael Wilson of Arizona & Jaxon Smith-Njigba of Seattle tied for third at 26. Lamb's total puts him 4 receptions clear of second place & 17 ahead of the 25th-ranked player.

Only 11 receptions separate first from tenth. Fifth is Tetairoa McMillan of Carolina at 23, then Chris Olave of New Orleans sixth at 22, Zay Flowers of Baltimore seventh at 21 & Puka Nacua of the Los Angeles Rams, Tee Higgins of Cincinnati, DK Metcalf of Pittsburgh and Luther Burden III of Chicago are tied for eighth at 20.

Amon-Ra St. Brown of Detroit ranks second on the season at 27 but has led the league in right-aligned receptions over the last three weeks at 15. Malik Nabers of the New York Giants & Wan'Dale Robinson of Tennessee are tied 12th at 19, then Ja'Marr Chase of Cincinnati, DeVonta Smith of Philadelphia & Drake London of Atlanta tied 14th at 18 and Garrett Wilson of the New York Jets & Emeka Egbuka of Tampa Bay tied 17th at 17.

The last seven players in the ranking sit inside 1 reception of each other. Kalif Raymond of Chicago & Khalil Shakir of Buffalo are tied 19th at 15, then Matthew Golden of Green Bay, Carnell Tate of Tennessee, Rome Odunze of Chicago, KC Concepcion of Cleveland and Nico Collins of Houston tied 21st at 14. Chicago, Cincinnati & Tennessee are the only teams with two or more players in the top 25. Seven ranks inside the top 25 are shared by more than one player.
