Weird snap count leaders

It is hard to project snap counts in general so I am not going to go into too much detail with these, but I wanted to highlight some of the things I thought were strange in his depth chart. Here are the ones that stood out the most and why that is strange to me.

Starting right tackle: Isaiah Wilson

There is 0% chance of this happening. Not only is Wilson very bad at football by all accounts, but he is also one the COVID list for the second time in a month and you have to assume that the Titans coaching staff is getting pretty fed up with him not doing what he is supposed to do.

Larrell Murchison gets fewer snaps than Matt Dickerson

-Again, not a huge deal but I think the Titans are much higher on “Big Murch” than Dickerson and it would shock me if Dickerson gets half as many snaps as Murchison when the season is over.

Derick Roberson only gets 31 snaps

-Once active last year, Roberson quickly climbed the depth chart and ended up with 94 snaps in 5 games including the playoffs. It would shock me if he doesn’t top that in 2020 even with the added competition at EDGE.

David Long and Will Compton split reps at linebacker

-Long and Compton end up splitting the LB3 role with Long getting 55% of the snaps and Compton getting 45% with neither putting up any stats of note.
