Snap Count Review: Thin Browns secondary puts in a full day of work in Pittsburgh

We're breaking down who played how much in Sunday's loss to the Steelers. — Cleveland's secondary entered the game without two of its safeties, Ronnie Harrison Jr. and Karl Joseph. That meant a full workload for the entire back end of the defense, as Andrew Sendejo and Denzel Ward played all 65 snaps and Sheldrick Redwine and Terrance Mitchell played all but one. — Kevin Johnson has reclaimed his role as the team's nickel cornerback. He played 42 snaps. — B.J. Goodson led all of the LBs with 57 snaps while Malcolm Smith (34), Mack Wilson (31) and Sione Takitaki (21) rotated in and out of the game. — Larry Ogunjobi and Olivier Vernon played 85 percent of the snaps to lead the defensive linemen. Ogunjobi missed last week's game with an abdomen injury but showed no ill effects. — Baker Mayfield played 42 snaps before he was lifted from the game. Case Keenum played the final 15. — Harrison Bryant (21) and David Njoku (23) continued to split reps at the No. 2 TE spot. — Kareem Hunt played 30 of a possible 57 snaps while D'Ernest Johnson got on the field for 17. — With the Browns emphasizing the pass because of the deficit they faced throughout the game, FB Andy Janovich (7) was not utilized as much as previous weeks. — Game captain Tavierre Thomas logged a whopping 26 special teams snaps, the most of any player in Sunday's game.Click below for a full breakdown.
