Chargers' Alohi Gilman: Records eight tackles Sunday
Rotowire
Gilman finished with eight tackles (four solo) in a Week 15 win over the Titans on Sunday.
Gilman's tackle total was second on the Chargers in the victory behind Drue Tranquill's 10. Gilman logged 100 percent of Los Angeles' defensive snaps for the third time in his past four games, with his eight stops Sunday ranking as his second-most this season. However, the third-year safety may see his opportunities decrease Week 16 if Derwin James (quadriceps) is able to return to action.

Chargers' Alohi Gilman: Likely starting Week 5
Rotowire
Gilman is starting at safety next to Derwin James during warmups ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Browns, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Gilman has been operating as the third safety who only comes in during dime and nickel packages when James moves to the slot, but it appears he'll get the starting nod over Nasir Adderley, who figures to handle Gilman's usual responsibilities. Through four appearances, Gilman has recorded just three tackles across 48 defensive snaps, but he's in line for a much larger role in Week 5.
