Nelson recorded six total tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 26-23 overtime win over the Panthers.

The Iowa product started opposite Yaya Diaby in Week 13, filling in for Joe Tryon-Shoyinka (ankle) and logging a season-high 53 defensive snaps. Nelson came just short of bringing down Bryce Young several times, recording three QB hits without a sack. He's now tallied 31 total tackles, including 3.0 sacks, and one forced fumble through Tampa Bay's first 12 games this season.
