We know the number of yards run per quarter:

$\text{Mean number of yards run} = \frac{\text{Sum of yards run across quarters}}{\text{Total number of quarters}}$

Sum of yards run across quarters = (-2) + 14 + (-18) + (-6) = -12

Total number of quarters = 4

⇒ $\text{Mean number of yards run} = \frac{\text{Sum of yards run across quarters}}{\text{Total number of quarters}}$

⇒ $\text{Mean number of yards run} = \frac{-12}{4}$ = -3

Hence, he ran -3 yards per quarter
