Billings recorded 27 tackles over 17 games in his first season with the Bears and will likely continue in a part-time role in 2024. Billings played between 25 and 35 snaps in all but four games. There were only three occasions in which the veteran surpassed two tackles. With second-year players Gervon Dexter and Zacch Pickens possibly taking a step forward, it's possible that Billings could see a slight dip in snaps. That would make the low-floor IDP value of Billings even lower.

Billings notched two tackles in the Bears' 17-9 loss to the Packers on Sunday. Playing on the fourth team in his six-year career, Billings had one of his least productive seasons by recording 27 tackles over 17 games. The veteran defensive tackle is signed through 2025, but he'll go into 2024 as a low-upside IDP.

Billings (lower leg) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Patriots, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports. Billings logged limited workloads at practice all week and is looking like a true game-time decision. If he is ultimately unable to go again, Jerry Tillery and Neil Farrell could again be in line for increased snaps.

Billings (lower leg) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Rams, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports. Billings is in line to miss his second straight contest as a result of the lower-leg injury he sustained versus Seattle in Week 12. In his absence, Bilal Nichols, Neil Farrell and Matthew Butler could all receive additional opportunities on the interior of Las Vegas' defensive line for the time being.

Billings (undisclosed) was not listed on the Raiders' injury report Wednesday, Rachel Gossen of the team's official site reports. Billings exited during the fourth quarter of Las Vegas' season-opening loss to the Chargers this past Sunday with an undisclosed injury. However, his lack of any injury designation Wednesday appears to indicate that he should be available heading into the team's Week 2 matchup against Arizona. Billings has already surpassed his total defensive production from last season -- one tackle over six games with Cleveland -- through one game in 2022, and he should slot in as the Raiders' starting defensive when healthy moving forward.
