The Cincinnati Bengals picked up their first win of the season during the Week 4 encounter with the Carolina Panthers.
Along the way, the team made some notable adjustments to the snap counts that helped get them in the win column, so here’s a look at some notes:
- The shakeup at running back finally happened, with Chase Brown taking 40 percent of the possible snaps, leaving Zack Moss at 60 percent. Brown was explosive, going for 80 yards and two scores on 15 attempts.
- Rookie tight end Erick All led all tight ends with 60 percent of the snaps. That will change by opponent and gameplan, but his breakout is obvious.
- Hyped rookie wideout Jermaine Burton played four snaps.
- Despite playing through an injury that could linger all season, Sam Hubbard got 80 percent of the snaps.
- The situation at cornerback is intriguing. DJ Turner swiped 73 percent of the snaps, while Cam Taylor-Britt‘s brutal day saw him get 51 percent.
- Pass-rusher Joseph Ossai got 57 percent, partially due to playing ahead and Carolina predictably passing.
- Trey Hendrickson played 51 percent before leaving with the injury.
