It's Football Season

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Every row, column, and 3x3 box contains the digits 1-9, once each.
The blue endzone is divided by 3x3 box borders into sections with the same sum. The orange and green cells are purely cosmetic.
Xs are offensive players. Cells separated by an X sum to ten. Arrows show the routes to be executed by the receivers. Digits along each of these arrows sum to the digit in the arrows' circles.
Gray dots are defensive players. One yet-to-be-determined defensive player makes the tackle on this play. They will have their gray dot turn black. Their remaining teammates will all have their gray dots turn white.
The black dot, when determined, will separate cells in a 2:1 ratio. White dots will separate consecutive digits.

This is so cool that you managed to represent a complete 11 v 11 football play with routes in Sudoku, and it's also fun and interesting to solve!

Fun theme and fun solve. Unfortunately, I don't think Caleb is going to be much of a QB, but I hope I am wrong!

I initially fumbled, but after a new kickoff, I scored easily! Thanks for a fun puzzle. Go Pats!
