The official snap counts from the Philadelphia Eagles’ Week 15 win over the Las Vegas Raiders are in! Let’s take a look and run through some analysis.
OFFENSE
- Entering Week 15, Jordan Mailata was the only Eagles player to have played 100% of the team’s offensive snaps this season. He finally got some rest within a game this year with Matt Pryor taking over at left tackle in the fourth quarter.
- Fred Johnson and Tyler Steen were the only offensive starters to play the entire game.
- Dallas Goedert led all pass-catchers in playing time, targets (7), receptions (6), yards (70), and touchdowns (2).
- A.J. Brown only played one fewer snap than Goedert but saw just two targets. Three if you count the defensive pass interference penalty he drew on the Eagles’ first drive.
- Grant Calcaterra was utilized on too many non-garbage time snaps.
- Jahan Dotson did not log a target for the third time in 14 games this season.
- DeVonta Smith saw two targets.
- Tank Bigsby logged a season-high 17 carries for 57 yards (3.4 average). He was just shy of scoring his first touchdown of 2025.
- Darius Cooper set a new career-high in receiving yards with 29 in this game. He also drew a pass interference penalty to set up a goal-to-go sequence.
- Cameron Latu continues to line up at fullback.
- Brett Toth replaced Landon Dickerson at left guard in garbage time.
- Drew Kendall replaced Cam Jurgens at center in garbage time.
- Tanner McKee replaced Jalen Hurts at quarterback in garbage time.
- Will Shipley only managed to get four snaps and zero offensive touches despite garbage time opportunities being available. The Eagles chose to ride Bigsby hard instead.
- Britain Covey logged his first offensive snaps of the season in garbage time. Covey last played on offense in Week 13 of the 2024 season.
DEFENSE
- The most snaps played by any Eagles defender was 39. Vic Fangio’s defense got some much-needed rest after being relied on to play a ton of snaps in recent weeks.
- Cooper DeJean and Zack Baun are still tied for the lead in snaps played by Eagles defenders this season.
- Marcus Epps continues to start over Sydney Brown at safety.
- Moro Ojomo continues to be the Eagles’ top defensive tackle in Jalen Carter’s absence. Ojomo notched one sack, putting him up to five on the season.
- Nakobe Dean once again played a little less than Baun, with rookie Jihaad Campbell coming in to take some snaps.
- Jaelan Phillips logged zero tackles but he had two pass deflections (one for a fourth down stop) and two quarterback hits.
- Nolan Smith is up to three sacks in his six games since returning from injured reserve.
- Brandon Graham only needed SEVEN snaps to log two sacks! He also logged a TFL in that short span. Talk about efficiency. BG’s still got it. The Eagles gave him the wily veteran a game ball for this performance.
- Ty Robinson continues to play sparingly as DT5 with Carter out.
- Andre’ Sam played the first regular season defensive snaps of his NFL career in this game.
SPECIAL TEAMS
- Jake Elliott continues to be perfect on all kicks with Charley Hughlett as his long snapper. And the Eagles continue to be undefeated with Hughlett on the active roster. The Cal Adomitis curse is over.
- For the second time this season, Braden Mann only had to punt once.
DID NOT PLAY
INACTIVE: Lane Johnson, Jalen Carter, Joshua Uche, A.J. Dillon, Mac McWilliams, Sam Howell
- Johnson is reportedly expected to return to practice this week. If he doesn’t play in Week 16, he could be back on the field in Week 17.
- Carter’s timeline to return is unclear. No need to rush him back at the moment.
- Weekly question: why is Dillon on the roster?
