Welcome to the most chaotic snap count breakdown of the season. With 17 players on the injured reserve and physically unable to report list, three more inactive due to injury, four starters being healthy scratches, two players who dropped out of action on Sunday with injury and the Green Bay Packers trying to sit difference-makers as much as possible, the data this week is inverted.<\/p>\n
Really, based on how the Packers played their players in Week 18, the more snaps that a player got against the Minnesota Vikings, the lower that person is on the depth chart. With that out of the way, let\u2019s get into what happened in the season finale.<\/p>\n
50 snaps: Clayton Tune0: Jordan LoveMalik Willis (inactive – shoulder\/hamstring)<\/p>\n
The Packers will be in the market for a quarterback in the NFL draft (I wouldn\u2019t count the team using as early as a fourth-round pick at the position). Clayton Tune made his second start in his NFL career, his first with Green Bay, on Sunday.<\/p>\n
Tune had -7 passing yards on the night after you include the four sacks he took for 41 yards. In his NFL career, he\u2019s now completed 21 of 38 passes (55 percent) for 112 yards (2.9 yards per pass), no touchdowns, three interceptions and has taken 12 sacks for 85 yards. His net passing yards per attempt is 0.7 yards, before ever including his interceptions.<\/p>\n
Head coach Matt LaFleur said after the game that Jordan Love, who had to play backup in this game because of Malik Willis\u2019 injuries, would have handed the ball off on every single play, had been forced into game action.<\/p>\n
27: Emanuel Wilson (4 SPT)23: Chris Brooks (8 SPT)Josh Jacobs (inactive – healthy scratch)<\/p>\n
The Packers only went into this game with two running backs, even though the team ran the ball 70 percent of the time in this game \u2014 despite being down on the scoreboard for over 50 minutes.<\/p>\n
50: Matthew Golden47: Jakobie Keeney-James (9 SPT)13: CB Bo Melton (9 SPT)8: Jayden Reed0: Christian Watson0: Romeo DoubsDontayvion Wicks (inactive – concussion)<\/p>\n
Rookie first-round pick Matthew Golden only had eight receiving yards in this game, but he was on the field for every single offensive snap against the Vikings. His former college quarterback, Tune, just couldn\u2019t get him the ball.<\/p>\n
The leading receiver in the game was practice squad call-up Jakobie Keeney-James, who had two receptions for 15 yards. He also handled kickoff and punt return duties, to varying success. Keeney-James let several punts hit the ground and roll. He also kneeled a kickoff for a 20-yard touchback when his foot was outside of the goal line. He did get a 26-yard return, though.<\/p>\n
Jayden Reed was sidelined throughout the first half until cornerback\/receiver Bo Melton went down with a knee injury. That forced Reed into action. Melton was never officially ruled out by the team, only listed as questionable to return.<\/p>\n
44: Drake Dabney (9 SPT)36: Josh Whyle (13 SPT)2: Luke Musgrave<\/p>\n
Because of the limited bodies elsewhere, the Packers actually had to use their tight ends on special teams in this game, which they really haven\u2019t done in 2025. While Josh Whyle and Luke Musgrave have generally split snaps in recent weeks, the fact that the team tried to put Musgrave in bubble wrap hints at the team\u2019s priorities.<\/p>\n
50: LT Jordan Morgan (1 SPT)50: LG: Lecitus Smith50: C Jacob Monk (1 SPT)50: RG Anthony Belton (1 SPT)50: RT Darian Kinnard (1 SPT)0: Rasheed Walker (1 SPT)0: Aaron Banks (1 SPT)0: Sean Rhyan (1 SPT)Zach Tom (inactive – knee\/back)<\/p>\n
The Packers played their preferred field goal protection unit on the final play of the game, so that the team could avoid a shutout. Outside of that, it was Jordan Morgan, Lecitus Smith, Jacob Monk, Anthony Belton and Darian Kinnard (left to right) on the offensive line throughout the night. Morgan, who has been starting at right tackle while Zach Tom has been out with his injuries, and Belton, in his usual right guard spot, had to play offense in this game due to Green Bay\u2019s roster situation.<\/p>\n
51: Barryn Sorrell (9 SPT)42: Brenton Cox Jr. (9 SPT)30: Collin Oliver (10 SPT)13: Arron Mosby (18 SPT)0: Kingsley Enagbare (8 SPT)0: Rashan Gary0: Lukas Van Ness<\/p>\n
Outside of Kingsley Enagbare playing some special teams snaps, the Packers kept their top three defensive ends on ice in this game. Barryn Sorrell, Brenton Cox Jr. and Collin Oliver played almost all (123 of 136) of the snaps at the position. Both Sorrell and Oliver were healthy scratches in Week 17 against the Baltimore Ravens, but Sorrell flashed on Sunday<\/a>.<\/p>\n 44: Warren Brinson (4 SPT)42: Nazir Stackhouse (4 SPT)30: Jonathan Ford5: Colby Wooden0: Karl Brooks (1 SPT)<\/p>\n For the most part, it was Warren Brinson, Nazir Stackhouse and Jonathan Ford at defensive tackle against the Vikings. Karl Brooks\u2019 only snap played was on field goal protection on the final play of the game. Ford was just picked up off waivers this week.<\/p>\n 64: Jamon Johnson (14 SPT)64: Ty\u2019Ron Hopper (18 SPT)25: Isaiah McDuffie (12 SPT)Quay Walker (inactive – healthy scratch)Edgerrin Cooper (inactive – healthy scratch)<\/p>\n Ty\u2019Ron Hopper made the start at middle linebacker on Sunday, as the team attempted to limit the snaps that Isaiah McDuffie played. The Packers only came into this game with three linebackers, so it would have been interesting to see who they would have moved into the box (likely a safety) had someone gone down. Thankfully, there weren\u2019t any injuries at the position.<\/p>\n 59: Jaylin Simpson (9 SPT)32: Shemar Bartholomew (11 SPT)32: Trevon Diggs (2 SPT)5: Keisean Nixon0: Carrington Valentine (1 SPT)<\/p>\n
