  • Cody Simon LB | ARI

    Cardinals' Cody Simon: Just three tackles vs. LAR

    Simon posted three tackles (one solo) during the Cardinals' 45-17 loss to the Rams on Sunday.

    Simon played every single defensive snap for a fifth consecutive game, though his three tackles were his lowest since Week 9 against the Cowboys (three). The rookie fourth-rounder has started at middle linebacker in each of the Cardinals' last five games, coinciding with the placement of Mack Wilson (ribs) on injured reserve. Simon should continue to serve in an every-down role at linebacker for as long as Wilson remains on IR.

  • Evan Williams SAF | GB

    Packers' Evan Williams: Tallies seven stops Sunday

    Williams totaled seven tackles (four solo) and a defensed pass in Sunday's 28-21 Week 14 win over the Bears.

    Williams tied for third on Green Bay with his seven tackles. He also posted his third defensed pass over his past four contests. Williams has been steady in a near-every-down role in his second NFL season, registering 87 tackles and five defensed passes (including three interceptions) across 13 games.

  • Packers' Isaiah McDuffie: Logs six stops Sunday

    McDuffie registered six tackles (three solo) in a 28-21 Week 14 win over Chicago on Sunday.

    McDuffie finished fifth on Green Bay in tackles in the victory. He's now posted at least six tackles in seven of his past eight games, with the exception being a Week 9 loss to Carolina when he logged a 33 percent defensive snap share. McDuffie is up to 72 tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and an interception through 13 contests on the campaign.

  • Ronnie Hickman SAF | CLE

    Browns' Ronnie Hickman: Logs four tackles vs. Tennessee

    Hickman logged four tackles (three solo) during the Browns' 31-29 loss to the Titans on Sunday.

    Hickman and Carson Schwesinger were the only two Browns defenders to play every single defensive snap, though the former had just four tackles to show for it. Even so, Hickman is up to 80 combined tackles through 13 regular-season games, far surpassing his total from the 2024 campaign (45 tackles across 14 regular-season games). He has four more regular-season games to crack the tackling century mark for the first time in his three-year NFL career.

  • Alex Singleton LB | DEN

    Broncos' Alex Singleton: Surpasses 100-plus tackles

    Singleton posted eight tackles (one solo) during the Broncos' 24-17 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

    Singleton played 49 of 50 defensive snaps (98 percent) and finished Sunday's game as the Broncos' leading tackler. He has logged at least eight tackles in eight of 12 regular-season games and is up to 103 combined tackles on the year, which marks the fifth time he has reached the tackling century mark in his NFL career.

  • Vikings' Andrew Van Ginkel: Picks off pass in Week 14 rout

    Van Ginkel notched four tackles (one solo) and two defensed passes, including an interception, in Sunday's 31-0 victory versus the Commanders.

    Van Ginkel's biggest play came in the third quarter, when he intercepted a pass intended for Terry McLaurin and returned it 40 yards to set up a Minnesota field goal. That was Van Ginkel's first pickoff of the campaign and fifth of his career, all of which have come over the past four seasons. The veteran linebacker's sack count has been down a bit this year -- he has 4.0 through eight games -- but he's also contributed seven defensed passes, one shy of his career-best regular-season mark.

  • Germaine Pratt LB | IND

    Colts' Germaine Pratt: Scoops fumble in Week 14 loss

    Pratt logged six tackles (two solo), one pass defense and a fumble recovery during the Colts' 36-19 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.

    Pratt finished with the second-most tackles on the team behind Zaire Franklin (seven). Pratt scooped up a Bhayshul Tuten fumble late in the second quarter to set the Colts offense up at midfield, though Indianapolis ended up turning the ball over on downs four plays later. Since signing with the Colts in early October, Pratt has accumulated 73 tackles (41 solo), five pass defenses, one forced fumble and two fumble recoveries across eight regular-season games.

  • Eric Wilson LB | MIN

    Vikings' Eric Wilson: Gets to QB again in Week 14 win

    Wilson totaled six tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 31-0 shutout of Washington.

    Wilson tied for the second-most tackles on the Vikings in the easy win. Among his stops was a sack of Marcus Mariota late in the third quarter. Wilson actually looked to have a sack earlier in the contest, but the play was negated by a Minnesota penalty. Still, Wilson has recorded a sack in consecutive contests and has already nearly doubled his previous career-best regular-season mark with 5.5 sacks on the campaign.

  • Zaire Franklin OLB | IND

    Colts' Zaire Franklin: Posts seven stops vs. Jacksonville

    Franklin registered seven tackles (two solo) during the Colts' 36-19 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.

    Franklin was one of three Colts defenders to play every single snap, and he led the team in tackles for a second consecutive game. The 2018 seventh-rounder is up to 94 combined stops through 13 regular-season games, and he should crack the tackling century mark for a fourth consecutive year. That could come as soon as this Sunday against the Seahawks.

  • Antonio Johnson SAF | JAC

    Jaguars' Antonio Johnson: Logs season-high tackle total

    Johnson recorded eight tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 36-19 win versus the Colts.

    Johnson tied for his team's lead in tackles in Week 14 and compiled eight tackles for the first time since Week 5 of the 2024 season. His role in Week 15 versus the Jets could mostly depend on the availability of regular starting safety Andrew Wingard (concussion).
