Houston recorded three tackles (two solo) including 1.5 sacks during Sunday's 37-22 win against the Jets.

Despite being boxed out for snaps (22) on the edge by rookie second-rounder Donovan Ezeiruaku (42) and Sam Williams (33), Houston picked up a sack for the third time in his last four games in Week 5, bringing his season total to 3.5. He'll be looking to add to that count in Week 6 at Carolina.

Ayomanor recorded two receptions on four targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 22-21 win over Arizona.

Ayomanor seemed to have the momentum among Tennessee pass catchers entering Week 5, as he had at least five targets and had topped 35 targets in three consecutive games. He instead had a disappointing showing and was overshadowed by veteran Calvin Ridley, who had a trio of long receptions in the comeback win. The Titans' offense has hardly been capable of sustaining one viable fantasy wide receiver this season, so Ayomanor's production is likely to remain inconsistent in the short term.

Delpit logged four tackles (one solo), one pass defense and one fumble recovery during Cleveland's 21-17 loss to Minnesota on Sunday.

Delpit jumped on a loose ball early in the first quarter, and that turnover led to a Dillon Gabriel one-yard touchdown pass to Harold Fannin seven plays later. Delpit has opened the 2025 regular season with 27 tackles (16 solo) and three pass defenses (one interception) through five games.

Bland recorded seven tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 37-22 win against the Jets.

Bland played a season-high 70 defensive snaps in Week 5, which led to him posting his highest tackle total of the campaign so far. Big tackle numbers aren't normally a big part of his game though, keeping him from being an IDP consideration in most formats going into a Week 6 contest at Carolina.

Murray recorded five tackles (one solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 37-22 win against the Jets.

Given Murray was on the field for 73 defensive snaps in Week 5, it's a bit surprising he posted his lowest tackle total of the year thus far. He's still on pace for a career high in that category on the season, making him a solid IDP option for a Week 6 tilt at Carolina.

Sanker recorded seven total tackles (six solo) and recovered a fumble in Sunday's 26-14 win over the Giants.

Sanker was able to jump on the ball after Demario Davis stripped wide receiver Darius Slayton in the second quarter, securing his first career fumble recovery. The safety has now compiled 23 total tackles (17 solo) and three passes defensed, including an interception, while also adding a fumble recovery over five games this year.

Elliss logged six tackles (three solo) in New England's win over the Bills on Sunday.

Ellis finished third on the team in tackles behind Robert Spillane and Marcus Jones during the victory. Elliss has now racked up 33 tackles (16 solo) across his first five outings of the season, and he will look to continue his strong start to the season in the team's Week 6 matchup versus Saints.

Wilson recorded eight tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 37-22 win against the Jets.

Wilson collected at least six tackles for the fourth consecutive contest in Week 5, thanks in part to being on the field for 69 defensive snaps. He'll be looking to keep that streak going in a Week 6 contest against Carolina.

Chestnut recorded one carry for three yards in Sunday's 22-21 win over Arizona. He did not catch his only target.

Chestnut was on the field for only three offensive snaps while slipping to third on the Tennessee depth chart due to the return of Tyjae Spears. Chestnut has not attempted more than two carries in a game this season.

Bush registered six tackles (four solo) during the Browns' 21-17 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

Bush finished Sunday's game tied with Greg Newsome for the third most tackles on the Browns behind Carson Schwesinger (12) and Ronnie Hickman (10). Bush is up to 36 total tackles through the first five games of the regular season, and he has logged at least six stops in each contest. The 2019 first-rounder is on pace to surpass his tackling total from the 2024 campaign (76 tackles across 16 games).
