2 games without him is still too small a sample for the statistics to say much, but maybe you can find something if you squint.

With him is a game he played, from the snap counts; without him is a game the team played while he was on its roster and he didn’t.
Over expected is the team’s average a game over what the season’s ratings expected in each game, the same numbers each measure’s own page reads. “Averages” shows the plain numbers.
Against the line is the team’s margin less the closing line’s, the market’s margin before kickoff, from nflverse’s schedules. A game with no line sits out.
Why he’s out: the NFL’s week 4 injury report.
