calculate_player_stats_kicking function

Summarize Kicking Stats

This function was deprecated because we have a new, much better and harmonized approach in calculate_stats().

Build columns that aggregate kicking stats at the game level.

calculate_player_stats_kicking(pbp, weekly = FALSE)

Arguments

• pbp: A Data frame of NFL play-by-play data typically loaded with load_pbp() or build_nflfastR_pbp().
• weekly: If TRUE, returns week-by-week stats, otherwise, stats for the entire data frame in argument pbp.

Returns

a dataframe of kicking stats

Examples

try({# to avoid CRAN test problems
    pbp <- nflreadr::load_pbp(2021)
    weekly <- calculate_player_stats_kicking(pbp, weekly = TRUE)
    dplyr::glimpse(weekly)

    overall <- calculate_player_stats_kicking(pbp, weekly = FALSE)
    dplyr::glimpse(overall)
})
