After last week the Raiders were searching for answers on defense. One of the issues is at linebacker and that issue was compounded with the loss of Aldon Smith to a one year suspension. With that suspension, Benson Mayowa took over as the rush outside linebacker, but instead of also increasing the snaps for Ray-Ray Armstrong, it was rookie Ben Heeney who saw the most major increase in his snaps.
Heeney saw a total of 38 snaps in the game (53%) which was more than Mayowa (18) and Curtis Lofton (23). Armstrong didn't see a single snap on defense.
The fifth round rookie saw 38 snaps is more than he had had over the previous nine games combined (26). With his newfound snaps, he had 7 tackles (5 solo) and a sack.
Here are all of this week's snap counts:
