What is the Fantasy Football Points Calculator?
This tool converts a player's real-game box-score stats into fantasy football points using the most common scoring rules. It supports Standard, Half-PPR (0.5 points per reception) and Full PPR (1 point per reception) leagues, and includes deductions for interceptions and fumbles lost so quarterbacks and ball-carriers are scored fairly.
How to use it
Enter the player's passing yards and TDs, rushing yards and TDs, receiving yards, TDs and receptions, plus interceptions and fumbles lost. Choose your league's PPR setting from the dropdown. The calculator returns the total fantasy points along with a breakdown by passing, rushing and receiving so you can see where the value came from.
The formula explained
Most leagues award 1 point per 25 passing yards, 4 points per passing touchdown, 1 point per 10 rushing or receiving yards, and 6 points per rushing or receiving touchdown. Receptions add 0, 0.5 or 1 point depending on the PPR setting. Each interception and each fumble lost subtracts 2 points.
$$\begin{gathered} \text{Points} = \frac{\text{Pass Yds}}{25} + 4\,\text{Pass TD} - 2\,\text{INT} + \frac{\text{Rush Yds}}{10} + 6\,\text{Rush TD} \\[0.6em] + \frac{\text{Rec Yds}}{10} + 6\,\text{Rec TD} + \text{PPR}\cdot\text{Rec} - 2\,\text{Fum Lost} \end{gathered}$$
Worked example
A running back has 90 rushing yards, 1 rushing TD, 40 receiving yards, 4 receptions and 1 fumble lost in a Half-PPR league. Rushing = \(90/10 + 6 = 15\). Receiving = \(40/10 + 0 + 4\times0.5 = 6\). Penalty = \(1\times2 = 2\). Total = \(15 + 6 - 2 =\) 19 points.
FAQ
What is PPR? PPR stands for Points Per Reception. Full PPR adds 1 point per catch, Half-PPR adds 0.5, and Standard adds none.
Do passing yards really only count for so little? Yes — at 1 point per 25 passing yards, quarterbacks rely on touchdown passes for most of their fantasy value.
Are fumbles always −2? Most leagues penalize fumbles lost by 2 points, though some use −1. This calculator uses the common −2 setting.
