Sean McVay doesn’t lack options on offense or defense this season, given the Los Angeles Rams’ depth across the roster. He can go five deep at wide receiver, three deep at running back and has about four safeties who are more than capable of being starters.
But on Sunday against the Colts, McVay let his starters do most of the work, particularly on offense. He rarely pulled his top players from the field, which led to minimal roles for DeSean Jackson, Johnny Mundt and Tutu Atwell.
On defense, he and Raheem Morris went a little deeper into the depth chart, but not deep enough to get Terrell Burgess involved.
Here are the snap counts on each side of the ball from the Rams’ Week 2 win.
