“—” means nflverse has no snap record for that game. Games with snaps but no stat line had zero passing, rushing and receiving stats. RZ = inside the opponent 20, GL = inside the 5, counted from nflverse play-by-play (regular season, excluding two-point tries). -10 = team down 10+ at the snap; Close = within 7 points either way.
