An analysis of the Detroit Lions' 2025 final injury reports to determine the likelihood that a player designated as "Questionable" actually suits up on gameday.
You might get a much better picture of this trend by accumulating 10 years of data. I don't think much can be inferred from only 2025. But maybe there is only a 10% variance and the range might be 70-80% of questionable players play in any given year.
Totally agree, more data is good and there will be variance for sure. For each year that you go back, the data becomes less and less valuable though, as team reporting philosophies change, so that would need to be taken into account. It took a while just to compile and confirm the 2025 data, so I just capped it there.
