The blowout nature of the Buffalo Bills鈥� Week 2 win over the New York Jets led to some variation in the team鈥檚 snap counts.

To wit: Cornerback Tre鈥橠avious White played 26 defensive snaps in his return to the lineup after missing Week 1 with a groin injury. That was 55% of the defensive total. It鈥檚 possible the Bills could have used White more against the Jets, but there was simply no need.

鈥淚 was happy for Tre. He worked extremely hard to get himself back,鈥� Bills coach Sean McDermott said Monday. 鈥淔elt like he was in a good spot to go. He went out there and played well.鈥�

When White left the lineup, rookie cornerback Dorian Strong 鈥� who started in Week 1 鈥� came in and played 21 snaps (45%).

Here are four more takeaways from the Bills鈥� Week 2 win over the Jets:

1. Elijah Moore took advantage of more playing time. The receiver scored a touchdown against his old team on a rushing attempt. More played 30 offensive snaps, which was 40% of the offensive total.

2. The defensive tackles had a light day. The Bills鈥� four active defensive tackles all played less than 50% of the defensive snaps. Rookie T.J. Sanders led the way with 23 snaps (49%), followed by fellow rookie Deone Walker (22 snaps, 47%), DaQuan Jones (22 snaps, 47%) and Zion Logue (16 snaps, 34%).

3. Sam Franklin and Keonta Jenkins were limited to special teams. The Bills used Franklin, a safety, on 17 special-teams snaps (61%), while Jenkins 鈥� a rookie linebacker called up from the practice squad 鈥� played 14 snaps (50%).

4. Dawson Knox again leads the tight ends in playing time. Knox played 41 offensive snaps, which was 55% of the team total. He was targeted five times, which was second on the team to only his position mate, Dalton Kincaid, who got six targets in playing 36 snaps (48%).

Player of the game: James Cook

Twice in the Bills鈥� last three games, including the AFC championship game last season, Cook has been the offense鈥檚 best player, and that includes quarterback Josh Allen. Cook carried the offense against the Jets, finishing with 132 rushing yards on 21 attempts and scoring two touchdowns.

Stat of the game: 1-0

That was the score of the turnover battle, won by the Bills. Buffalo has now remarkably won the turnover battle in 24 straight games, which is an NFL record.

Quote of the game

鈥淚 think they took it personal. They understand what type of defense they can be. They went out there and then they played extremely well. That's the standard that we're looking for from them. They understand that. Very proud of how those guys attacked the entire week of practice, stepped up the occasion.鈥� 鈥� Quarterback Josh Allen on how the Bills鈥� defense rebounded after a poor showing in Week 1
