Eagles snap counts vs. Colts: How much did Linval Joseph and Ndamukong Suh play in their debuts?
It was far from pretty, but the Philadelphia Eagles are 9-1 following their 17-16 win over the Indianapolis Colts.
A look at the official snap counts from Week 11:
Offense
Notes
- Jack Stoll was TE1 in place of the injured Dallas Goedert, playing in 81% of the snaps. Grant Calcaterra was on the field for 19 snaps, Tyree Jackson saw nine snaps on offense.
- Zach Pascal saw an uptick in usage; he figures to have an increased role in the absence of Goedert.
- As has been the theme for the season, DeVonta Smith continues to see the most snaps at receiver. He finished with the most targets (9), receptions (6), and yards (78) on the team.
- Kenneth Gainwell saw his lowest snap count of the season at 16%.
- AJ Brown saw just two targets in the second half after catching three passes for 46 yards in the first half. He had a costly fumble with nine minutes to go in the 4th quarter.
- Quez Watkins made up for his blunder last week, catching a 22-yard strike from Jalen Hurts in the 4th quarter.
Hurts to Watkins! @Eagles pull within 3.

Defense
Notes
- New acquisitions Linval Joseph and Ndamukong Suh made impacts in their Eagles debuts. Joseph played in 40% of the defensive snaps, while Suh saw 17 snaps. The two were often on the field together and combined for a pivotal sack in the third quarter. Colts RB Jonathan Taylor was held to just 35 yards rushing after the opening TD drive.
- Robert Quinn saw just ten snaps; it appears to be a slow grind working him into the defense.
- Marcus Epps, CJ Gardner-Johnson, James Bradberry, and Darius Slay played in every defensive snap. Epps is the only Eagle to have played in every snap this season.
- After playing in 70 snaps vs. Washington, Fletcher Cox saw only 48 snaps this week. Hopefully he isn’t as fatigued this week.
- Reed Blankenship had a key third-down stop in the first defensive snap of his career. He was the sixth DB used in dime personnel over K’Von Wallace.
