How often does an NFL receiver go over his receiving yards line?

One row per game with a receiver's opening and closing yards line, the price, what he gained and whether he went over. Ja'Marr Chase went over in 10 of 16.

Code verified October 13, 2026. One call to get_prop_history, 10 credits.

The call

player_id is a GSIS id from search_players. Other markets include receptions, rushing yards, passing yards and anytime touchdown.

import requests
import pandas as pd

API_KEY = "YOUR_API_KEY"

resp = requests.post(
    "https://mcp.endzoneapi.com/v1/get_prop_history",
    headers={"x-api-key": API_KEY},

        "to_date": "2026-02-28",
    },
    timeout=60,

games = pd.DataFrame(data["games"])

print(data["player_name"], data["stat"], "|", s["overs"], "overs,", s["unders"], "unders, over rate", s["over_rate"])
print("average line", s["avg_line"], "average actual", s["avg_actual"])
print(games[["game_date", "open_line", "line", "actual", "result"]].tail(6).to_string(index=False))
# Over rate when the line moved up from the open, down, or stayed put.
games["move"] = (games["line"] - games["open_line"]).apply(lambda m: "up" if m > 0 else "down" if m < 0 else "flat")
print(games.groupby("move")["result"].value_counts().unstack(fill_value=0))

Replace YOUR_API_KEY with a key from your dashboard. Python needs requests and pandas (pip install requests pandas). JavaScript runs on Node 18 or newer, or in the browser.
