Saints Snap Counts vs. Texans: Offensive Line Finally Healthy

Let's take a look at how often each Saints player was on the field during their 24-6 loss to the Texans.

For the first time in a while this season, the offensive line starters played the entire game, including Andrus Peat at guard.

Benjamin Watson saw the most snaps of all receivers. Tight end Michael Hoomanawanui saw his play time drop below his usual amount, with only 14 snaps to his credit. That's actually one less than Josh Hill, who is normally the third tight end.

Once again, C.J. Spiller only saw a handful of playing time. He was involved in 12 plays the entire game.

Cornerback Kyle Wilson played nearly half the game, which means the Saints defense was probably in nickel formation for those snaps.

At linebacker, the defense only rotated in five players. Stephone Anthony was out there for every play, followed by Ramon Humber who played 64% of the game, Hau'oli Kikaha at 56%, and Michael Mauti at 41%. Kasim Edebali played 20% of the total snaps.
