Top Nakobe Dean News

  • Raiders' Nakobe Dean: Prolific in Week 7 loss

    Dean produced 12 tackles and an interception in Sunday's loss to the Rams.

    Dean tied with Quay Walker for the team lead in tackles and also came up with an interception of Matthew Stafford early in the fourth quarter. That helped set up a Raiders touchdown, but Las Vegas ultimately suffered a third straight loss. Dean is in the midst of a standout season, as he's recorded double-digit stops in four of his past five games and is tied for third in the NFL with 68 tackles through seven contests.

  • Raiders' Nakobe Dean: Notches 12 tackles in loss

    Dean registered 12 total tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 33-30 loss to the Bills.

    Dean was able to record 12 stops for the second straight week and the third time this season. The linebacker is off to a hot start in his first campaign in Las Vegas, compiling 56 total tackles (33 solo), including 1.5 sacks, while also adding three forced fumbles and a pass defensed over six games to open the year.

  • Raiders' Nakobe Dean: Leading tackler in win

    Dean recorded 12 tackles (11 solo), a pass defensed and a forced fumble during Sunday's 35-27 win at New Orleans.

    Dean punched the ball out of tight end Juwan Johnson's hands in the flat with about one minute left on the clock in the fourth quarter, and the Raiders' recovery sealed their victory in Week 3. He profiles as a strong IDP option in most formats going into a Week 4 matchup versus the Chiefs.

  • Raiders' Nakobe Dean: Full participant Thursday

    Dean (shoulder) was a full participant in practice Thursday.

    The inside linebacker was limited to open the practice week Wednesday. Now that he's back, Dean should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Saints. He has recorded 15 tackles (11 solo), including 1.5 sacks, and two forced fumbles through two contests.

  • Raiders' Nakobe Dean: Limited to open week

    Dean (shoulder) was a limited participant at the Raiders' practice Wednesday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.

    Dean recorded 10 total tackles (seven solo), including 0.5 sacks, in the team's 26-14 win over the Chargers on Sunday, but he may have suffered a shoulder injury during the contest. The linebacker will have two more chances to log a full practice and prove his health before the Raiders face New Orleans in Week 3.

  • Raiders' Nakobe Dean: Leads team in tackles

    Dean made 10 tackles (seven solo), including 0.5 sacks, in Sunday's 26-14 win over the Chargers.

    Dean tied Quay Walker for the most Raiders tackles in Sunday's contest. The inside linebacker's seven solo tackles and his two quarterback hits also led the team. Dean departed the Eagles and joined the Raiders in March on a three-year, $36 million free-agent contract, and he appears to be a seamless fit in the team's defensive scheme thus far.

  • Raiders' Nakobe Dean: Plays well in win over Miami

    Dean ended with six tackles (five solo) and 1.0 sacks in Sunday's 27-13 win over Miami.

    The Raiders defense took care of business in Week 1, with Dean accounting for one of the team's five total sacks on the day. The 25-year-old played for the Eagles before signing a three-year deal with the Raiders in March. In 47 regular-season games with Philadelphia, Dean amassed 226 total tackles, 7.5 sacks and one interception. While he is certainly capable of making a difference whenever he's on the field, he's had issues staying healthy throughout his career.
