Alford tallied five solo tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in the Falcons' loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.
Alford was one of Atlanta's few bright spots during the loss, recording the team's lone sack of Tua Tagovailoa. Across seven games played, the 27-year-old has logged 24 tackles (19 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and an interception. He will look to add to his totals during the Week 9 matchup versus the Patriots.
