profootballfocus --- but you gotta pay.
only other alternative I know of would be to search beat writers' blogs.
so, for example, according to GB beat writers on twitter:

As @BobMcGinn notes today, Starks played 45 snaps, Grant 16. Pass pro a ways to go but pretty telling.
which isn't exactly what you wanted, but it might be out there somewhere.
according to this:

"What'd Greg (Jennings) have, seven catches?" Philbin asked a handful of reporters. "OK, he played 55 plays.

That Nelson/Jones breakdown is unreal. I would have thought Nelson had double the snaps, not just 7 more. Very telling.

That is absolutely mind-boggling to me that Jordy only played 27 snaps - can that be accurate?

There was a site I had bookmarked like two years ago that had this info for free. Someone here in the SP linked it, IIRC. But I don't have the bookmark anymore and have no idea what the site was called.

Hey Footballguys.com
Is there a reason why snap count data is not included in the premium section for subscribers? Could it be included in the Game Recaps? Target data is nice to use but knowing how much time the player was on the field and for what situations could be very valuable information to have. Personally, I do not want to pay another website for snap count information when I am already paying you.

Hey Bird,The reason we don't provide that data is because we don't have that data. But if you're really into that kind of thing, PFF does offer those metrics for a subscription to their site.
Does PFF have some kind of copyright for the data? If I'm carrying 2% milk on the shelf and some of my customers want fat free milk then I would get fat free milk on the shelf and not tell them to go to 7-11.
You buy your milk at 7-11?

No I think he sells milk. Well, he sells 2% milk. 7-11 has a copyright on fat free milk I think.

PFF is in the stats game, that's their entire focus. They've invested what I'm assuming is a good deal of resource in amassing those stats. To get snaps data, and map it in terms of down/distance/field position, etc...is a hugely intensive task.We aren't in that business. We leverage a LOT of stats as part of what we do, but they're tools to facilitate fantasy advice.One of the great things about Footballguys though is that we always have a money back guarantee. If you're not satisfied with the fat content of our milk, just shoot Joe an email (bryant@footballguys.com) and I'm sure he'll be happy to provide you with a refund.
.....because we're so big now will replace you with another subscriber even though you've subscribed to us since GRIDIRON ASSASSIN had posting privileges.......freakinclassic

It was Proffotballfocus I bet. they only took the detailed info private only in the beginning of last year IIRC. Pretty dumb on their part. I used to go to that site 20-30x a week. Now It's 5 times a year. I can't imagine that they make enough off subscriptions to justify the drop in traffic. I'd be interested to see the stats as I think # of hits etc is all public info. But who knows.

That's probably what it was, then. I had it bookmarked on a laptop that has since died. I'm not sure what their business model looks like but I think someone above referenced that it's a $30 subscription per team?! I'd gladly pay $30 a year to get that kind of info for the whole league, but I'm not shelling out $1,000 for it.

Last year, PFF went to a subscription model. It was 90 dollars for their player ratings and many of their game charting stats, which included the position at which each player most lined most and the number of snaps of the total team snaps they played. That package is now 30 dollars this year.
The player participation data, which had been free before last year, were charts showing where every player lined up on each snap. That subscription was 50/team, 1400/year last season. That data isn't offered at all this year, at least that I've been able to determine.

So from $90 a year to $30 a year, and from $1400/year to not providing the service the next. Yeah, I'd say that was a broken business model.

Back on to the related topic. I've posted this elsewhere, but keep in mind that the GB offense is "matchup oriented". Meaning that aside from Jennings and Finley, GB is going to play the matchups on who else gets the ball. Sometimes that will be Jones, sometimes Driver and sometimes Nelson. It just depends and I believe it's similar to what New Orleans fans see with the Saints.

McGinn had Finley at 51 snaps, but the really interesting thing is that for 29 of those 51 he was isolated wide or in the slot, essentially lining up as a WR.

It's not happening guys, that's not our business model.

If $30 is in your wheelhouse, just send it to PFF and you are good as gold!

The amount of time and effort that PFF puts into their accumulating their stats is pretty intensive, so to just tell FBG...."hey provide us those stats and we'll throw in a couple more bucks, no big deal." 
I think PFF will get bought by some fantasy website sooner than later.
