Detailed Packers Snap Counts: Week 2 Depth Chart

Last night, we posted the raw snap counts for the Green Bay Packers in their Week 2 matchup against the Washington Commanders. In this piece, though, we’re going to dive into the nitty-gritty details about the Packers’ personnel, including where players actually lined up and how the team is using these players.

Let’s go position by position, including slot roles, for both the offense and defense.

The tables you see below show season-long snap counts and weekly snap counts. A cell highlighted in yellow means that a player dropped out of action in that game due to injury. A cell highlighted in red means that a player was injured for that game and did not participate at all.

We’re excluding plays that featured pre-snap penalties and kneeldowns, but are including plays that had post-snap penalties.

Offensive Personnel

The Packers played a little more three-receiver sets this week, upping their percentage from 38 percent in Week 1 to 49 percent in Week 2. Still, they’re more likely to have two or fewer receivers on the field than not this year.

More interesting to me than raw personnel is that the Packers played a lot of YY and Trey Nub sets against the Commanders. What this means is that in multiple tight end looks, they got the receivers on the same side of the field.

Defensively, the Commanders had a couple of options for how to handle that:

• They could corner over, playing both cornerbacks on the same side of the field to match the receivers. This is a huge tell to the offense that it’s man coverage.
• They could keep their cornerbacks on opposite sides of the field. This is a huge tell to the offense that it’s zone coverage, and it’s a great way to get receivers on linebackers (versus two-high looks) or safeties (versus one-high looks).

Green Bay often got into these formations by way of motion. In Week 1, the Packers played 5 YY/Trey Nub sets out of their 21 12 personnel (one back, two receivers) sets (24 percent). That jumped to 15 of 26 (58 percent) this week. Matt LaFleur obviously liked that matchup against Dan Quinn’s easy-to-predict Cover 1 and Cover 3 heavy defense. Make them declare a coverage early and then shred it!

Yes, rookie receiver Savion Williams got a wildcat quarterback snap in Week 2.

Chris Brooks continues to get looks ahead of Emanuel Wilson as a single-back player on top of being on the field for two-back sets with the Packers. Green Bay also got out of using tight end John FitzPatrick in splitback gun looks this week and ended up using receivers Savion Williams and Dontayvion Wicks in those sets. None of the non-backs have ever lined up in the backfield as solo running backs in 2025.

As far as true outside receivers go, Romeo Doubs is running away as the WR1. As we mentioned earlier, the Packers played a lot of slot looks out of 12 personnel this...
