In the latest installment of our "Does It Matter?" series, we look to answer the question of whether hand size plays a role in the performances of NFL wide receivers. Our analysis found an interesting correlation that shed light on this aspect of player evaluation. In this article we reveal both a hard and soft range of hand sizes where WR performance increases. Further, we found 12 rookie receivers who should receive slightly higher value evaluations due to their hand size falling within the range we identified.
