Here’s a breakdown of how many plays each NC State player played against Old Dominion, accompanied by some key notes.
Quarterback
Jacoby Brissett – 75 plays (95%). This was a season high for Brissett.
Jalan McClendon – 4 (5%).
Running Back
Senior Shadrach Thornton played for the first time this season, and he and Junior Matt Dayes basically split the carries right down the middle.
Matt Dayes – 42 (53%)
Shadrach Thornton – 40 (51%)
Wide Receiver
Junior Jumichael Ramos led the Wide Receivers in snaps for the third straight game. Despite not producing eye popping statistics, Junior Jonathan Alston and Freshman Maurice Trowell are the next two receivers that the Wolfpack coaches send out the most. Freshman Nyheim Hines saw the least amount of snaps of the young season, and Sophomore Gavin Locklear picked up some of those snaps in the slot.
Jumichael Ramos – 50 (63%). This was a season high for Ramos.
Jonathan Alston – 33 (42%). This was a season high for Alston.
Maurice Trowell – 29 (37%)
Bra’Lon Cherry – 27 (34%). This was a season high for Cherry.
Gavin Locklear – 17 (22%) This was a season high for Locklear.
Nyheim Hines – 7 (9%)
Fullbacks & Tight Ends
Sophomore Cole Cook has tallied more snaps than any other NC State Tight End this season. I really am puzzled that Doeren made a big deal in the press conference earlier last week about Junior David Grinnage being back to full speed, and then see him only play 18 snaps against Old Dominion.
Cole Cook – 52 (66%). This was a season high for Cook.
Jaylen Samuels – 48 (61%). This was a season for Samuels.
Benson Browne – 26 (33%)
David Grinnage – 18 (23%)

Will Richardson – 79 (100%)
