Green registered eight tackles (four solo) during the 49ers' 26-15 loss to the Texans on Sunday.

Green was given the green light to play Week 8 after sustaining a toe injury in Week 7 against the Falcons. The issue didn't appear to bother the second-year corner, as he played every single defensive snap while finishing fifth on the 49ers in tackles. Green's eight tackles were his most of the regular season, and the 2024 second-rounder is up to 28 stops (16 solo) and five pass defenses through seven regular-season games.

Lenoir registered three tackles (two solo) and one interception during the 49ers' 26-15 loss to the Texans on Sunday.

Lenoir was on the receiving end of an overthrown deep pass from C.J. Stroud that was intended for Jaylin Noel at the end of the first half. It was Lenoir's first interception of the season and first since Week 8 of the 2024 campaign against the Cowboys. The 2021 fifth-rounder has accumulated 29 tackles (21 solo) and three pass defenses through the first eight games of the regular season, which is well behind pace from his numbers in 2024 (85 tackles through 15 regular-season contests).

Al-Shaair posted four tackles (one solo) and a pass defense during the Texans' 26-15 win over the 49ers on Sunday.

Al-Shaair played every single defensive snap for a second consecutive game and finished tied for third on the Texans in tackles. His production has dipped as of late; he has accumulated just 17 tackles over his last four games after posting 25 tackles through the first three games of the regular season. Al-Shaair is up to 42 tackles through seven games and is on pace to surpass his total from 2024 (70 tackles across 11 regular-season games).

Anderson registered 1.0 sacks and a pass defense during the Texans' 26-15 win over the 49ers on Sunday.

Anderson was quiet for most of Week 8, but he took down Mac Jones for a 10-yard sack late in the fourth quarter for his first tackle of the game. Anderson is up to 5.0 sacks through seven regular-season games, which is tied for 12th most in the NFL, and he is on track to surpass his sack total from 2024 (11.0 sacks in 14 regular-season games).

Allen recorded 1.0 sacks in Sunday's 44-24 win over the Cowboys.

Allen was able to get to Dak Prescott in the fourth quarter, recording at least 0.5 sacks for the fourth straight game. The defensive lineman has now produced 19 total tackles (five solo), including 4.0 sacks, while also adding three passes defensed over eight games this season.

Battle registered eight tackles (four solo) and one pass defense during the Bengals' 39-38 loss to the Jets on Sunday.

Battle played all 72 defensive snaps and finished tied with Barrett Carter for the third-most tackles on the Bengals behind Demetrius Knight (12) and Geno Stone (nine). Battle has played every single defensive snap in seven of the first eight regular-season games and is up to 58 tackles on the year, which matches his total from 2024 (across 17 regular-season contests).

Love (hamstring) sat out of practice for the second day in a row Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

The safety has missed four of Seattle's last five games, and while he appeared to have a chance to return this Sunday, Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald said Wednesday that Love suffered a setback, per Brady Henderson of ESPN.com. Ty Okada has been playing in Love's absence, and he would likely get the opportunity if the starter had to miss extended time.

Jones compiled six total tackles (three solo) and a pass defensed in Sunday's 44-24 win over the Cowboys.

Jones was able to post at least six stops for the third week in a row and sixth time overall this season. The safety has now registered 50 total tackles (23 solo), including 0.5 sacks, while also adding five passes defensed, one of which is an interception, and a fumble recovery over eight games this year.

Cooper recorded four total tackles and two passes defensed in Sunday's 44-24 win over Dallas.

Cooper was unable to get to the quarterback for the first time since Week 5, but he was able to match his season total in passes defensed. The linebacker has now compiled 25 total tackles (11 solo), including 6.0 sacks, while also adding four passes defensed over eight games this year.

Ouzts (ankle) was a full participant in practice Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

The fullback was also a full participant in Wednesday's session, two days after being designated to return from injured reserve. Ouzts is on track to play this Sunday against the Commanders after missing Seattle's last four games. The rookie started two of the Seahawks' first three contests and could provide a blocking boost to Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet upon his return.
