Jordan posted four tackles (two solo), including 2.0 sacks, during the Saints' 21-17 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

Jordan sacked Tua Tagovailoa on the Dolphins' third offensive play of the game for an eight-yard loss, and the former tacked on a four-yard takedown of the Miami QB later in the first quarter. It was Jordan's second multisack performance of the season, and veteran defensive lineman has accrued 4.0 of his 6.5 sacks over the Saints' last three games. He'll look to add to his total in Week 15 against Baker Mayfield and the Buccaneers.

Benford recorded two tackles (one solo), an interception and a fumble recovery for a touchdown during Sunday's 26-7 win at Pittsburgh.

On the first play from scrimmage in the second half, Benford came into the backfield on a corner blitz, putting him in position to scoop up an Aaron Rodgers fumble at the Steelers' 17-yard line and dash into the end zone. He had a relatively slow start to the year, but things appear to be picking up for him with a Week 14 tilt versus the Bengals around the corner.

Scott totaled nine tackles (five solo) and an interception during Carolina's win over the Rams on Sunday.

Scott played every defensive snap for the Panthers and recorded the second-most tackles on the team behind Lathan Ransom's 11 (two solo). Scott also snagged his first interception of the season, picking off Matthew Stafford in the end zone during the first half. The 30-year-old will look to build on this strong performance once the team returns from its upcoming bye week.

Sherwood posted four tackles (one solo) and a pass defense during the Jets' 27-24 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

It was a somewhat disappointing performance from a fantasy perspective for Sherwood, who finished Sunday's game with a season-low four tackles despite playing every single defensive snap. He has logged double-digit tackles in six of 12 regular-season games, though he's reached that mark only once over his last five outings. Sherwood was in early contention for the title as the league's combined tackles leader, but he now sits tied with Nate Landman and Carson Schwesinger for the eighth most stops in the NFL at 106.

Emmanwori recorded four tackles (three solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 26-0 win versus the Vikings.

Emmanwori's performance in coverage certainly contributed to Seattle pitching a shutout in Week 13, though that doesn't necessarily show in the box score. He continues to be one of the most promising defensive rookies in the league, and he'll be hoping to show more of what he can do in Week 14 at Atlanta.

Spillane logged two solo tackles in New England's win versus the Giants on Monday.

Spillane snapped his streak of five consecutive games with at least five tackles during the victory. The 29-year-old will look to bounce back and resume his usual level of production Week 15 versus the Bills following the team's upcoming bye.

Elliss tallied six tackles (two solo) during New England's win over the Giants on Monday.

Elliss matched Craig Woodson for the team lead in tackles during the victory. Elliss has had a productive start to the season across his first 11 outings, as he's already just 12 tackles shy of his career-best 80 (42 solo) set during the 2024 campaign.

Moore registered 10 tackles (six solo) during the Jets' 27-24 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

The rookie fourth-rounder played 68 of 69 defensive snaps during Sunday's win and led both teams with a career-high 10 tackles, including one for a loss. Moore has started in each of the Jets' last seven games and has logged at least five tackles in four of those contests. The Alabama product is up to 60 tackles (34 solo) and two pass defenses through 12 regular-season games.

Bates recorded four tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 27-24 loss against the Jets.

Bates had recorded at least seven tackles in each of the Falcons' three games prior to Sunday's, so his output in Week 13 may have been disappointing for some fantasy managers counting on him for IDP production. He'll be looking to get more involved in a Week 14 matchup versus the run-dependent Seahawks.

Elliss recorded eight tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 27-24 loss against the Jets.

Elliss was on the field for all 63 of the Falcons' defensive snaps in Week 13, and he posted at least six tackles for the sixth time in his last seven games. His per-snap tackle production is down compared to his first two years with Atlanta, but he's still in the IDP conversation heading into a Week 14 tilt versus the Seahawks.
