Packers Snap Counts, Week 14: Defense makes do with skeleton crew at cornerback

The Green Bay Packers ended up with a fascinating list of snap counts in their week 14 game against the Cleveland Browns. The interesting point comes particularly at the cornerback position, which saw the team severely shorthanded coming into the game.

Kevin King just went on injured reserve in the past few days, and Davon House played after being listed as doubtful for the game. However, House left midway through the game with a serious back injury, and did not return.

That normally would have indicated more playing time for Josh Hawkins opposite Damarious Randall, but instead the snap counts show that the Packers played with a single traditional cornerback on the field for a significant period of time, apparently with Morgan Burnett lining up both in the slot and on the boundary at times.
