He falls asleep on his own when he is laid down.

Has anyone had an infant with this kind of schedule before, did it work well?
A young infant typically is good with eating and then sleeping. Once I start working with them on sleep training and a routine I feed them on demand but try to feed them an hour or so before afternoon nap. They play and usually go down without much issues. As long as the baby is happy and eating/ sleeping ok I think whatever works. The sooner they get used to a routine they are happier IMO.
