Wilson recorded eight tackles (four solo) and a defensed pass in a 20-13 win against New Orleans on Sunday.

Wilson was quite productive in the season-opening victory, finishing tied for second on Arizona with his eight stops. He logged 100 percent of the team's 75 defensive snaps, something he didn't do in any game last season. Wilson's solid start to the campaign Sunday suggests he has a good chance of exceeding his career-high mark of 82 tackles, which he established in his rookie 2019 season with Cleveland.

McMillian recorded two tackles (one solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one forced fumble in Denver's win over Tennessee on Sunday.

McMillian played 54 percent of the defensive snaps against the Titans, and 30 of his 31 snaps came at slot corner. After the game, Coach Sean Payton sang McMillian's praises after he recorded a strip-sack of Cam Ward on the Titans' final offensive play in the fourth quarter with 47 second left to clinch the Broncos' 20-12 victory.

Strnad recorded five tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, in the Broncos' win over the Titans on Sunday.

Strnad made the start at linebacker alongside Alex Singleton in the middle of Denver's defense. Strnad logged 67 percent of the defensive snaps and recorded one of Denver's six team sacks against rookie No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward. Strnad should remain in the starting lineup for Denver until Dre Greenlaw returns from his quadriceps injury.

Milano tallied four tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, during the Bills' win versus the Ravens on Sunday.

Milano had a strong outing in his season debut as he recorded one of the team's two sacks of Lamar Jackson. Milano was limited to just nine games across the past two seasons due injuries but will look to stay healthy and return to his typical production during the current campaign.

Moss recorded seven tackles (five solo) in the Broncos' win over the Titans on Sunday.

Moss started at outside cornerback opposite Patrick Surtain and played all 57 defensive snaps versus Tennessee. In addition to the seven tackles, Moss also recorded a pair of pass breakups. Next up for Moss and Denver's defense is a date with Daniel Jones, Michael Pittman, Alec Pierce, Adonai Mitchell and Josh Downs of the Colts.

Hill finished Sunday's 17-16 win against Cleveland with nine tackles (five solo).

Hill was productive in racking up tackles, finishing third on Cincinnati in that category. The fourth-year cornerback logged 74 of the Bengals' 76 defensive snaps and looked healthy after missing the final 12 regular-season games last year due to an ACL tear.

Benford recorded seven tackles (five solo) during Buffalo's win over the Ravens on Sunday.

Benford had been dealing with a groin injury last week but that seemingly didn't hamper the 25-year-old as ended up leading the team in tackles. He will look to build off this strong performance and keep producing as the regular season gets further underway.

Murphy recorded four tackles (all solo) Monday in a 27-24 victory versus the Bears.

Murphy was on the field for all 67 of Minnesota's defensive snaps. He's coming off a 2024 campaign in which he registered career-best marks with 81 tackles and six interceptions over 17 regular-season contests.

Watson (knee) agreed to a one-year, $13.25 million contract extension with the Packers on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Watson has opened the campaign on the reserve/PUP list while he continues to recover from a torn ACL in his right knee, which he suffered in Week 18 of last season. The wide receiver entered 2025 on the final year of his rookie deal, but he now will remain in Green Bay at least one additional season. Watson compiled a career-high 620 receiving yards with two touchdowns on 29 catches over 15 games in 2024 before going down with the knee injury. The 26-year-old will remain out for the first four games of the season, but he could return to action as soon as Week 6 versus the Bengals on Oct. 12.

Pace posted five tackles (two solo) in Monday's 27-24 win against Chicago.

Pace finished tied for second on Minnesota with the five stops. The veteran linebacker logged 47 of his team's 67 defensive snaps and will look to stay healthy this year after missing six regular-season contests due to injury in 2024.
