New Orleans Saints depth chart
Ranked by the share of snaps each player actually took in weeks 2–3, not by the order the team published. 39 players. Snap share is the most reproducible signal we measure — it repeats with itself at 0.96 across a season, against 0.89 for receptions — so if one number has to decide the order, it is this one.

Snap counts come from official gamebooks via Pro Football Reference and are published about a week after each game, so this is a record of weeks 2–3 rather than a prediction of the next one. Players below 2% of snaps are left out: one appearance in two games is an injury replacement, not a rung on a depth chart. New Orleans Saints usage and projections · schedule and bye week.
