Brock Coyle could continue to spell 49ers LB Ray-Ray Armstrong at times

The San Francisco 49ers defense has had to play a ton of snaps through the first two games. They played 67 snaps in Week 1, and 82 this past week. The 49ers use a rotation on their defensive front, but it is still a busy group.

The 49ers signed several players to play primarily special teams, but they are starting to see defensive opportunities as well. Dekoda Watson got in 15 snaps in place of Eli Harold in Week 1, and Week 2 saw Brock Coyle getting more work spelling Ray-Ray Armstrong.
