From the episode

He's been inefficient. He's losing snaps to Pirine... The snap count heading into the bye week was concerning. It seemed to fix itself until maybe he got banged up.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Snap count decline to McPherson concerning; inefficiency persists despite veteran backup.

Chase Brown has been inefficient and losing snaps to Evan McPherson heading into the bye week; while McPherson is a 31-year-old veteran (not an explosive young threat), the snap-count trend is concerning and suggests Brown's role compression may continue even after the bye.
