Output in context · Lexington finished 9th of 12 · a lower-table side
3 goals in 17 appearances (0.18 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 6 goal contributions (0.35 per appearance).
Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.36 goal contributions per 90 (0.18 goals, 0.18 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 55% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.76 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 16.7, Epps carries the 23rd-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the USL Championship of 26, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Lexington finished 9th of 12) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.36 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
