Takeaways

Jason Pierre-Paul played 50 snaps, probably many more than could have been expected with him playing for the first time since back surgery. ... The defensive tackle depth was on full display with all four active defensive tackles playing at least 30 snaps, and all playing well. Cullen Jenkins had the most snaps of that group with 45. ... Spencer Paysinger is your only full-time, every-down linebacker, as indicated by the 70 snaps he played. ... Go ahead, make your 'one play JJ' jokes. ... Henry Hynoski played only 13 snaps and was obviously rusty. ... Terrell Thomas played 38 snaps in his return to the NFL.
