Assessment highlight of the week: QB Trevor Harris, Saskatchewan Roughriders

Trevor Harris led the Roughriders to a dominant 29-9 victory over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats this week and completed 21-of-27 passes for 307 yards, three touchdowns and one interception. On paper it seems to be a striking performance. So why did his overall figure come in at only 67.9?

Harris placed a solidly adjusted completion rate of 77.8% and placed an average target depth of 9.9 meters. He led the competition in the percentage fitting that was thrown beyond the sticks at 55.6% and registered two large throws.

His figure, however, decreased due to four turnover plays-de except one of each quarterback this week, with only Bo Levi Mitchell’s six. In addition to the only interception, Harris had three other throws that could easily have been chosen. He got away with them, which helped Saskatchewan to victory, but Pff assesses each game individually. Those four turnover plays considerably reduced their overall figure.
