NFL Snap Count Leaders (2016)

Linebackers - Weeks 1 to 17

What are NFL Snap Counts?
Snap counts represent the total number of plays a linebacker participated in during a given week. All things equal, a higher snap count is preferable since it indicates there were more opportunities for the player to accumulate stats. To view advanced snap metrics, check our Snap Count Analysis report.
