Snap Counts

Take a look at the snap counts and playtime percentage for the Panthers in Week 16 of the regular season against the Cardinals.

• The Panthers had exactly one wide receiver active for Sunday's game who was drafted. That was former seventh-round pick David Moore (226th overall in 2017), and he was questionable heading into the game because of a concussion suffered the previous week. All he did was play more snaps than any non-lineman or quarterback (61-of-68), and haul in one of the catches of the year on his fourth-quarter touchdown. The rancher from Texas is still out there protecting his herd.
• Chuba Hubbard actually got a chance to breathe, with 11 whole snaps going to other backs, with Raheem Blackshear (seven) and Mike Boone (four) getting the rest. But the Panthers mixed up the running game, with Deven Thompkins and Moore getting carries along with Bryce Young, as the team ran for 243 yards.
• Speaking of that rushing effort, sixth offensive lineman Chandler Zavala played 13 snaps, indicating what an emphasis it was a week after they got away from it against the Cowboys.

• Xavier Woods, Mike Jackson, and Jaycee Horn are all among the top 10 in the league in total snaps played this year, and they all played all 70 snaps Sunday. Woods has played every defensive snap this season. That workload is partly because the Panthers defense as a whole hasn't been great this year, but those guys have answered the bell and been available to the team.
• Rookie safety Demani Richardson (replacing veteran Jordan Fuller in the starting lineup) and linebacker Josey Jewell also played every snap, and rookie linebacker Jacoby Windmon played 76 percent of them when the necessity arose.

• Special teamer Jon Rhattigan didn't have to play defense this week (after stepping in for a snap and calling plays), but he and safeties Sam Franklin Jr. and Lonnie Johnson each played a game-high 28 snaps on special teams.
• Safety Nick Scott (22 snaps) was also up this week and resumed his normal special teams role, along with tight end Feleipe Franks (27).
