In short

Jawaan Taylor is a starter at right tackle for ATL — 100% of the snaps in his best week of 8. He has a hamstring injury. In week 8 he practised limited every day the report covers. His team has not listed him on the final report. We say he plays — 93%, in a band that plays 94% of the time. We have said PLAY since 93 hours before kickoff.

The reader's full reasoning

The rest of the reading

31 report (P1), which carries game statuses (Robinson OUT, several teammates QUESTIONABLE), lists "RT Jawaan Taylor (hamstring)" under Limited with no designation whatsoever, which is the strongest available signal that he is expected to play. Nothing in the dossier or passages indicates a setback, and no passage names a replacement at right tackle (P1 lists Cameron Williams as QUESTIONABLE himself).
