Hudl IQ helps coaches evaluate wide receivers with advanced stats on alignment, routes and performance.
Wide receivers are game-changers. They can stretch the field, win one-on-one matchups and turn routine catches into explosive gains. But great receiver play is about more than catches and yards. It’s about route precision, separation, timing and ball skills.
With the Hudl IQ receiver tools, coaches can go beyond the eye test and the box score to get a more precise evaluation of wideouts using advanced video and data. Whether you’re scouting talent or looking to evaluate the players on your depth chart, Hudl IQ brings clarity to one of the game’s most exciting positions.
Here’s a quick look at Hudl IQ’s wide receiver tools and how coaches are getting the most out of them.
Player Information. Use the Player Information section to locate key details about the player, including a breakdown of alignment. Other details include height, weight, class, hometown, high school, recruiting class, Recruiting 247 ranking, Recruiting composite ranking and colleges offered.
Player Radar. Hudl IQ radars use specific stats and metrics to provide a comprehensive overview of player traits and performance—all of which can be compared to national averages.
Use the trait radar to see how a receiver is utilized in their offense’s scheme. See the percentage of plays they line up wide versus in the slot, Target %, Depth of Target (DOT), Target Separation, Catch Separation and more.
Use the performance radar to get a clearer picture of on-field performance. See key metrics like EPA/Play, Yards/Target, Catch %, Catch Rate Over Expected (CROE) and so much more.
Stats. Access a wide range of primary stats like games, routes and targets, plus contextual and route advanced stats like Deep Route Speed, EPA, YAC, Receiving Chucks and more to see how a wide receiver performs in a particular game or over a given season.
Passing Chart. The Passing Chart is a visual representation of passes thrown to that receiver. Use the chart to analyze every pass by outcome, location or situation, using color-coded paths or heat maps. Filter by completions, incompletions, touchdowns, underthrows, overthrows and more.
Routes Run. See the routes a receiver runs in any situation or alignment using the route tree tool. Dive deeper into every route and pass to reveal the catch radius of any receiver. Plus, all routes are connected to video, making it easy to see every action play out on film.
Pass Placement Chart. The Pass Placement Chart gives you a visual representation of a receiver’s catch radius and can show you how well they catch balls away from their body.
Snap Distribution. The Snap Distribution tool gives you a clear, visual breakdown of where and how often wide receivers are lining up across the formation. See how often a receiver lines up wide, in the slot or tight to the formation, and identify patterns in routes, targets and performance based on alignment.
With Hudl IQ’s receiver tools, coaches get a clearer view of how receivers create separation, win routes and contribute to explosive plays—making it easier to evaluate talent and build smarter game plans.
