Now that the official snap counts from the game have gone public, here’s a look at some quick notes:
— The offense played 100 snaps on the day, yet couldn’t move the ball particularly well thanks to issues up front and from Joe Burrow.
— Wideout Mike Thomas ended up playing 69 percent of the snaps after Tee Higgins went down with his injury.
— Running back Chris Evans was effectively a no-show on offense, still giving up all the snaps to Samaje Perine.
— Jessie Bates was in on 97 percent of the snaps, so no concerns — as expected — after that holdout.
— First-rounder Dax Hill saw exactly six snaps.
— Fellow rookie Zach Carter played 11.
