Sainristil tallied six tackles (five solo) during the Commanders' 27-18 loss to the Packers on Thursday.

Four of Sainristil's six tackles came in the second half, and his five solo tackles tied Marshon Lattimore for most on the Commanders in Thursday's loss. Sainristil has served in a near every-down role in Washington's secondary since being selected in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft.

Harris finished Thursday's 27-18 loss to the Packers with five tackles (three solo)

Harris was one of six Washington defenders to play every single defensive snap during Thursday's loss. Harris signed a two-year contract with the Commanders in March after playing in 13 regular-season games for the Saints in 2024, when he logged 74 tackles (54 solo) and five pass defenses (one interception).

Lattimore registered six tackles (five solo) and a pass defense during Washington's 27-18 loss to Green Bay on Thursday.

Lattimore played all 68 defensive snaps Thursday and finished tied for the third-most tackles on the Commanders behind Bobby Wagner (11) and Quan Martin (seven). Lattimore was acquired by the Commanders from the Saints last November, and the 2017 first-rounder brings veteran experience to a Commanders secondary that includes Martin, Trey Amos and Will Harris.

Armstrong registered six tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, during the Commanders' 27-18 loss to the Packers on Thursday.

Armstrong was credited with a 13-yard sack on Jordan Love late in the fourth quarter, which led to the Packers punting the ball two plays later to give the Commanders' offense one last opportunity to score. Armstrong has collected 2.0 sacks through the first two games of 2025, and the 2018 fourth-rounder is on track to extend his streak of 5.0 sacks in a season to five.

Martin finished Thursday's 27-18 loss to the Packers with seven tackles (four solo) and a pass defense.

Martin was one of five Commanders defenders to play all 68 defensive snaps Thursday, and he finished as the team's second-leading tackler behind Bobby Wagner (11). Martin has developed into an every-down starter since being selected by the Commanders in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft.

Luvu finished Thursday's 27-18 loss to the Packers with two assisted tackles.

Luvu played all 68 defensive snaps Thursday, but that extra time on the field didn't translate to the box score. It's just the fourth time in 19 regular-season games since Week 1 of the 2024 season that he has logged two total tackles or less. Next up for Luvu and the Commanders is a home bout against the Raiders on Sunday, Sept. 21.

Parsons logged two assisted tackles, including 0.5 sacks, during the Packers' 27-18 win over the Commanders on Thursday.

Parsons was limited to just 30 defensive snaps in his Packers debut against the Lions this past Sunday due to a lingering back issue. He was cleared to play Thursday and saw an uptick in playing time, seeing the field for 47 snaps on defense. He combined with Edgerrin Cooper on a 10-yard sack on Jayden Daniels early in the third quarter, and Parsons led both teams with three QB hits. The addition of Parsons has fortified the Packers' defense, which has yielded just 31 points over the first two games of the regular season against teams who made the NFC playoffs in 2024. The Packers' next contest takes place Sunday, Sept. 21 against the Browns in Cleveland, and the additional rest should help Parsons in seeing his snap count on defense increase for a second straight week.

Walker finished Thursday's 27-18 win over Washington with eight tackles (four solo).

Walker popped up on Tuesday's estimated injury report due to a quad issue. The 2022 first-rounder was given the green light to play Thursday and played all 69 defensive snaps, finishing with the second most tackles behind Edgerrin Cooper (10). Walker is up to 17 tackles on the season, which matches his total through the first two weeks of the 2024 campaign.

Cooper finished Thursday's 27-18 win over the Commanders with 10 tackles (seven solo), including 0.5 sacks.

Cooper got his first quarterback takedown of the season in the third quarter of Thursday's game, when he and Micah Parsons combined on a 10-yard sack of Jayden Daniels on third down, which led to a 52-yard field-goal attempt by Matt Gay on the next play that sailed right. Cooper has registered at least 10 total tackles in four of his last five regular-season games, dating back to Week 16 of the 2024 season against the Saints.

Wagner tallied 11 tackles (three solo) during the Commanders' 27-18 loss to the Packers on Thursday.

It's the second straight game in which Wagner has logged at least 10 total tackles, and his efforts Thursday brought his total for the season up to 21. The veteran linebacker has registered at least 100 total tackles in all 14 seasons he's played in since being selected by the Seahawks in the second round of the 2012 NFL Draft, and he is on track to extend that streak to 15 seasons.
