Chiefs' Nick Bolton: Game-high 11 stops Thursday
Bolton posted 11 tackles (six solo) and two pass defenses during the Chiefs' 31-28 loss to the Cowboys on Thursday.
It was another productive game for Bolton, who led both teams in tackles while logging double-digit stops for the fourth time this season. The fifth-year linebacker has officially cracked the century mark with 100 tackles (48 solo) through 12 regular-season games, and he needs just six more stops to tie his mark from the 2024 campaign (across 16 regular-season contests).

Chiefs' Nick Bolton: Logs eight tackles against Bolts
Bolton collected eight tackles (six solo) during the Chiefs' 27-21 loss to the Chargers on Friday.
Bolton had a nice start to the 2025 season Friday with eight takedowns, second-most on the Chiefs behind Chamarri Conner (10).

The 2021 second-rounder is an every-down linebacker and is an integral piece to the Chiefs' defense.
