About UMAP Embeddings

UMAP (Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection) reduces high-dimensional player statistics into 2D coordinates. Players with similar performance profiles appear close together on the map. This visualization helps identify player archetypes, find comparable players, and understand the NFL's positional landscape.
