OFFENSE
| Position | Player | Snaps | Snap% |
|---|---|---|---|
| OG | Todd Herremans | 68 | 100% |
| C | Jason Kelce | 68 | 100% |
| OT | Andrew Gardner | 68 | 100% |
| OG | Dennis Kelly |
68 | 100% |
| OT | Jason Peters | 68 | 100% |
| QB | Nick Foles | 68 | 100% |
| WR | Riley Cooper | 60 | 88% |
| WR | Jeremy Maclin | 57 | 84% |
| TE | Zach Ertz | 52 | 76% |
| RB | LeSean McCoy | 49 | 72% |
| TE | Brent Celek | 46 | 68% |
| WR | Jordan Matthews | 34 | 50% |
| RB | Darren Sproles | 25 | 37% |
| TE | James Casey | 9 | 13% |
| WR | Jeff Maehl | 7 | 10% |
| WR | Brad Smith | 1 | 1% |
The biggest takeaway from the offensive snaps is that Zach Ertz surpassed Brent Celek. It was just a slight margin (6%) but it's clear the Eagles went to get Ertz on the field more, and rightfully so. Philadelphia also dialed down Jordan Matthews' snaps this week. He played 66% of the snaps in Week 1 to only 50% against the Colts. It seems Darren Sproles will likely hover around that high 30% mark for most of the season. He obviously makes the most out of his snaps.

Nothing too out of the ordinary here. Mychal Kendricks left the game early with a calf injury but is expected to be OK. Both Nolan Carroll II and Earl Wolff played less than they did in Week 1. Wolff didn't even register a single snap on defense.
