Here’s a closer look at Eagles snap counts from their win over the Rams on Sunday night.
A week after Jalen Carter played every Eagles defensive snap, he was well on his way to doing it again. But thanks to the Eagles’ 37-20 blowout win, the star defensive tackle got a bit of a breather.According to NFL NextGen Stats, Carter played the first 51 of 59 plays on Sunday night before the backups came in. That gave him an incredible streak of 114 consecutive snaps dating back to Week 10. That was the longest active streak in the NFL.
Here’s how the full DT rotation went on Sunday night: Jalen Carter 54 snaps , Milton Williams 24 snaps , Moro Ojomo 23 snaps , Jordan Davis 15 snaps , Thomas Booker 11 snaps .• Brandon Graham played 29 snaps before leaving the game with a season-ending torn triceps. While it’s obviously sad that Graham’s season and career might be over, it would be fitting in a way because he was playing incredibly well on Sunday. He had a sack, 3 quarterback hits, 2 TFLs and a pass breakup in those 29 snaps.
• The only defensive player who didn’t leave the field was rookie corner Quinyon Mitchell, who played all 64 snaps. Cooper DeJean , Reed Blankenship and C.J. Gardner-Johnson were right behind him. • At linebacker, Zack Baun played 53 snaps and Nakobe Dean played 52 . Dean had a very active evening with 8 tackles, a sack and 2 TFLs.
