The NFL coaching staff faces the complex task of distributing playing time effectively, particularly after Week 1 of the 2024 season.
Several players showcased their talents in limited roles, leading to discussions about increasing their snap counts. This includes Ty Chandler from the Minnesota Vikings, who should be a bigger part of the running game, and Alec Pierce of the Indianapolis Colts, whose big-play potential demands more opportunities. Marvin Mims of the Denver Broncos is poised to step up following an injury to a teammate.
Jamin Davis of the Washington Commanders is transitioning to an edge-rushing role, hoping for more game time to prove his value, while Edgerrin Cooper from the Green Bay Packers showed promise in his debut, likely earning him increased playing time as well.
