Background: I’m trying to scrape some of ESPN’s NFL statistics pages, specifically their statistics on receiving yards (https://www.espn.com/nfl/stats/player/_/stat/receiving). I asked for help here earlier (thank you!) and learned that to extract the JSON from the page I’d need to use:
info=json.loads(stats.text.split("window['__espnfitt__']=")[-1][:-1]) The only issue is I don’t quite understand how to find this or what to look for. Do you guys have any tips for finding JSON?
