Cross recorded seven tackles (five solo) during Sunday's 41-20 win at Tennessee.

Cross played 61 of the Colts' 65 defensive snaps in Week 3, and he turned in another good performance, tying for the team lead in tackles. He's well on his way to another 100-tackle season through three games, keeping him solidly on the IDP radar heading into a Week 4 matchup against the Rams.

Barton logged six tackles (five solo) during the Titans' 41-20 loss to the Colts on Sunday.

Barton joined L'Jarius Sneed as the two Titans players to play every single defensive snap in Week 3, and the former finished Sunday's contest with the second most tackles behind the Colts duo of Zaire Franklin and Nick Cross (seven each). Barton has 20 total tackles through the first three games of the regular season and is on pace to crack 100-plus tackles for a fourth consecutive year.

Sanborn finished Sunday's 31-14 loss to the Bears with seven tackles (three solo).

Sanborn has logged at least six tackles in each of the first three games of the regular season, and his 21 tackles is second most on the Cowboys behind Kenneth Murray (22). Sanborn started in 19 regular-season games over the first three years of his NFL career with the Bears, but the Wisconsin product has started in each of the first three games of the 2025 campaign. Next up is a home bout against the Packers on Sunday.

Murray logged six tackles (four solo) during the Cowboys' 31-14 loss to the Bears on Sunday.

Murray was one of two Cowboys defenders to play every defensive snap, and he finished tied with Reddy Steward for the third most tackles on the team behind Donovan Wilson and Jack Sanborn (seven each). Murray's 22 tackles leads the Cowboys through the first three games of the regular season, and he is on pace to crack 100-plus tackles for the third time in his six-year NFL career.

Murphy logged three tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, during the Seahawks' 44-13 win over the Saints on Sunday.

Murphy got to Spencer Rattler early in the third quarter for a six-yard sack, which forced the Saints to punt on the next play. Murphy had just 0.5 sacks across 14 regular-season games during his rookie season in 2024, but he's already up to 2.5 sacks (which have come over the last two contests). He'll look to extend his sack streak to three games Thursday against the Cardinals.

Thompson finished Sunday's 16-15 loss to the 49ers with six tackles (four solo).

Thompson played every single defensive snap for a third consecutive week and finished tied with Budda Baker for third most tackles on the team. Thompson is up to 24 total tackles on the season, which is second on the Cardinals behind linebacker Mack Wilson (28).

The Jets signed Robinson from the Patriots practice squad to the active roster Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Robinson was elevated from the Patriots' practice squad to the active roster in each of the first three games of the regular season, accruing three tackles (two solo) while playing exclusively on special teams. Robinson's addition to the Jets' active roster is a much needed one, given that fellow outside linebackers Quincy Williams (shoulder) and Marcelino McCrary-Ball (hamstring) were placed on injured reserve Tuesday. For as long as Williams and McCrary-Ball are sidelined, Robinson should work in a rotational role with rookie fifth-rounder Francisco Mauigoa and Cam Jones.

Wright did not garner a target in Monday's 38-30 win over the Ravens.

Wright played 38 of the team's 68 offensive snaps, but his impact came purely as a run blocker in the team's victory. With a healthy Sam LaPorta available, Wright doesn't have much upside as a receiving option for Detroit.

The Cardinals removed Jackson (thumb) from injured reserve Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Jackson suffered a thumb injury during the Cardinals' preseason game against the Chiefs in early August, which led to him being placed on injured reserve. Now that he's been let go from IR, Jackson will look to sign with a team in need of depth at wide receiver once he has fully recovered from his injury. Jackson appeared in two regular-season games for the Vikings in 2024 and logged 12 snaps (10 on offense, two on special teams) between those two contests.

TeSlaa failed to catch either of his targets in Monday's 38-30 win the Ravens.

TeSlaa was limited to 14 offensive snaps in Week 3, which was three less than the week prior, but the two targets were a season high. The rookie wide receiver has caught two of four targets for 42 yards over the first three games of the year, and TeSlaa is still firmly below Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams on the WR depth chart despite the flashes of upside he's shown.
