Snap Counts by Position: Christian McCaffrey gets a much-needed breather

Thursday’s victory over the New York Giants ended how many expected, but the result took a while to form as the Giants hung in the game as long as they could.

Let’s take a look at how the snap shares for each position from Thursday:

Quarterbacks - Brock Purdy 79, Sam Darnold 4

Early in the game, the Giants’ blitz caused some shaky play from Purdy, but he settled in as the game went on to have his best passing day as a pro with over 300 passing yards.

Running Backs - Christian McCaffrey 51, Kyle Juszczyk 42, Elijah Mitchell 28, Jordan Mason 4

The national nightmare is over!
