Lassiter racked up seven tackles (four solo) and one pass breakup -- an interception -- during Sunday's win over the 49ers.

Lassiter has now tallied five or more stops in all but one of his seven regular-season appearances to kick off the 2025 campaign. On the year, he's accumulated 45 tackles (30 solo) and five passes defensed, including two interceptions. The second-year pro has developed into a strong starter at cornerback for Houston, forming one of the league's best tandems at the position opposite Derek Stingley. His next challenge will be to contain Bo Nix and the Broncos at home in Week 9.

Burns tallied four tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, during the Giants' loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Burns was dealing with a hip injury throughout the week but ended up having a strong outing nonetheless, as he managed to record his 10th sack of the season. The 27-year-old is already just 2.5 sacks short of his career-high total set back in 2022, and he will look to add to his totals during the Week 9 matchup versus the 49ers.

Moehrig recorded four tackles (one solo) during Sunday's blowout loss to Buffalo.

Moehrig has now been held to under five tackles in three of eight regular-season appearances to begin the 2025 campaign. On the year, he's racked up 50 tackles (31 solo) including 1.0 sacks. Moehrig is now tied with Brandon Jones for the 10th-most stops at the safety position, production that puts him on the radar as a tentative starter in IDP formats heading into a Week 9 road matchup against Green Bay.

Bolton recorded six tackles (one solo) during Monday's 28-7 win versus Washington.

Bolton has now racked up at least six total tackles in all but one of his games this season, keeping him well on pace for 100-plus on the year. He should have plenty more chances to make tackles in Week 9 against a run-heavy Buffalo offense.

Brisker recorded five tackles (four solo) in the Bears' loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

Brisker has yet to miss a defensive snap this season and has now recorded 35 tackles (24 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and two pass breakups, including one interception, on 424 snaps through seven games.

Edmunds recorded three tackles (two solo) in the Bears' loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

Despite playing 94 percent of the defensive snaps, Edmunds did very little in the box score, as his three tackles were easily Edmunds' fewest of the season. On the year, he's recorded 64 tackles (32 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and five pass breakups, including three interceptions.

Rozeboom racked up 12 tackles (seven solo) and one pass defensed during Carolina's loss to the Bills on Sunday.

Rozeboom played 92 percent of defensive snaps during Sunday's loss to Buffalo, his first time above the 85-percent threshold since Week 4. The veteran linebacker has only tallied less than five tackles once across eight regular-season appearances so far, providing him a solid fantasy floor in IDP formats. Next on deck for the Panthers is a road matchup against Green Bay in Week 9.

Elliss logged 12 tackles (seven solo) and one pass defense during the Falcons' 34-10 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

Elliss cracked double-digit tackles for the first time this season after doing so 10 times in 2024. The 2019 seventh-rounder played every single defensive snap for the sixth time in 2025, and he leads the Falcons with 48 combined tackles through seven regular-season games. Elliss is on pace to record a third-straight 100-tackle season, though he's behind on matching his total from 2024 (151 tackles over 17 regular-season games).

Conner recorded 10 tackles (five solo) during Monday's 28-7 win versus the Commanders.

Despite a relatively low-tempo attack from the Washington offense in Week 8, Conner was able to log double digits in the tackle column for the third time this season. He's firmly on the IDP radar heading into a Week 9 tilt at Buffalo.

Okereke recorded eight tackles (seven solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Sunday's loss to the Eagles.

Okereke has now played 100 percent of defensive snaps in five consecutive games. Across eight regular-season appearances, Okereke has now racked up 68 tackles (36 solo) including 1.0 sacks, plus two pass breakups. He remains a high-floor fantasy option in IDP formats heading into a Week 9 home game against the 49ers.
