Taylor tallied five tackles (four solo) and in interception in Sunday's 17-7 victory versus Carolina.

Taylor played a big role in the Saints' win, intercepting Bryce Young early in the fourth quarter with New Orleans clinging to a three-point lead. The Saints scored a touchdown on their ensuing drive, leading to their second victory of the campaign. The pickoff was Taylor's first of the campaign and marked his first interception since the 2023 season.

Emmanwori tallied nine tackles (five solo), including 0.5 sacks, and four defensed passes Sunday in a 44-22 win against the Cardinals.

Emmanwori was all over the place Sunday, leading Arizona in stops and racking up four pass breakups. Among his tackles was an assisted sack of Jacoby Brissett on the first play of the second quarter. Since returning from an ankle injury in Week 5, Emmanwori has recorded 31 tackles and six defensed passes over five contests.

Franklin tallied 10 tackles (six solo), including 1.0 sacks, during the Colts' 31-25 overtime win over the Falcons on Sunday.

Franklin saved his biggest play of Sunday's game for last after sacking Michael Penix for a 12-yard loss in overtime, which forced the Falcons to punt on the next play. Franklin led the NFL with 173 combined tackles in 2024, but Sunday marked just the first time this season that the veteran linebacker tallied double-digit stops. The eight-year pro is up to 60 tackles (31 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and four pass defenses through 10 regular-season games.

Hunter recorded seven total tackles (five solo), including 3.5 sacks, while also forcing a fumble in Sunday's 36-29 win over the Jaguars.

Hunter was a force to be reckoned with in the team's divisional battle with Jacksonville, notching a strip sack of Trevor Lawrence in the first quarter, but the fumble was ultimately recovered by the Jaguars. The defensive end added two more full sacks in the second and fourth quarters before combining with linebacker Henry To'oTo'o to bring down Lawrence with 27 seconds left in the game. The seven takedowns were a season high for Hunter, and he is now up to 27 total tackles (16 solo), including 7.5 sacks, while also adding a pass defensed, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery over nine contests this year.

Knight tallied eight tackles (six solo), including 2.0 sacks, and forced two fumbles that were both returned for touchdowns Sunday in a 44-22 win against Arizona.

Knight made a huge impact early, as he sacked Jacoby Brissett less than six minutes into the game and forced a fumble that was recovered for a touchdown by DeMarcus Lawrence. Knight remarkably repeated that effort early in the second quarter, again sacking Brissett and forcing another fumble that Lawrence returned for a second TD. Knight's opportunity came as a result of Ernest Jones missing the contest with a knee injury. Since Jones was hurt in Week 9 against Washington, Knight has tallied 18 tackles (including Sunday's 2.0 sacks) across two games.

Cooper (shoulder) returned during the second quarter of Monday's game against the Packers, Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Cooper briefly left Monday's game after sustaining a shoulder injury in the first quarter, but he was back on the field in the second frame for the Eagles' third offensive possession of the contest. The undrafted free agent has not recorded a catch or target across four-regular season games entering Week 10.

Elliss recorded six total tackles (one solo), including 1.0 sacks, and a pass defensed in Sunday's 31-25 overtime loss to the Colts.

Elliss was on the field for every one of the the team's defensive snaps for the sixth game in a row, and he made his mark in the second quarter, sacking Daniel Jones for a 10-yard loss. The linebacker has now registered 60 total tackles (31 solo), including 2.5 sacks, while also adding four passes defensed, one of which is an interception, and a forced fumble over nine games this year.

Bishop totaled seven tackles (six solo) and an interception during the Bills' 30-13 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

Bishop made his presence felt in on the Bills' third defensive play of the game when he picked off a deep pass from Tua Tagovailoa intended for Jaylen Waddle, though Buffalo's offense wasn't able to convert that turnover into points. Through nine regular-season games, Bishop has recorded 48 tackles (33 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and six pass defenses (two interceptions).

Moehrig tallied seven tackles (six solo) during Carolina's loss to the Saints on Sunday.

Moehrig finished second on the team in tackles behind Derrick Brown, who had nine during the loss. Moehrig has gotten off to a strong start in his first season with the Panthers, recording 62 tackles (40 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and an interception across his first 10 outings.

Cooper (shoulder) is questionable to return to Monday night's contest against the Packers.

Cooper suffered a shoulder injury in the first quarter of the game, placing some doubt on his ability to return to the field during Monday Night Football. In his absence, Xavier Gipson could stand to see some additional snaps with the offensive unit.
