Jewell picked up 10 tackles, two sacks and a pass defensed during Thursday's 37-28 win over the Jets.

Facing a third-and-six at midfield while down by eight late in the third quarter, Sam Darnold dropped back to try to spark the comeback, but he was swallowed up by Jewell for a nine-yard loss. Jewell's 10 tackles were his most since Week 1 of last season, and his two sacks represented a career high. Perhaps most impressive has been Jewell's play in coverage. Known mostly as an athletically-limited run-stuffer, Jewell had a pass defensed and made some solid plays in coverage. Jewell is playing more than most anticipated he would just a few weeks ago with the loss of coverage backer Mark Barron (hamstring), and he's making the most of his opportunities -- his 30 tackles through four games leads the team.
