  • Bears' C.J. Gardner-Johnson: Extends interception streak

    Gardner-Johnson intercepted a pass and added four tackles (three solo) in the Bears' 31-3 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    Gardner-Johnson has interceptions in back-to-back contests and now has three on the season to go along with 3.0 sacks. With inconsistent tackle totals but frequent splash plays, he remains a big-play-dependent IDP with spike-week upside.

  • Bears' Gervon Dexter: Adds another sack in win

    Dexter recorded 1.0 sacks in the Bears' 31-3 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    Dexter now has 5.0 sacks this season while recording two or fewer tackles in all but four games. His reliance on sack production makes him a boom-or-bust IDP option from the interior defensive line.

  • Grady Jarrett DT | CHI

    Bears' Grady Jarrett: Breaks through with first sack

    Jarrett posted four tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, in the Bears' 31-3 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    Jarrett recorded his first sack of the season while continuing to post between two and four tackles in nearly every contest. Despite consistent snap counts at defensive tackle, his limited statistical ceiling keeps him in the low-floor IDP tier.

  • Austin Booker DE | CHI

    Bears' Austin Booker: Registers multiple sacks in victory

    Booker recorded four tackles (three solo), including 2.0 sacks, in the Bears' 31-3 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    Booker now has 3.0 sacks in eight games, though the two Sunday were his first since his first action of the season in Week 9. With limited tackle volume most weeks, he profiles as a low-floor IDP who provides value primarily when he reaches the sack column.

  • Cedric Tillman WR | CLE

    Browns' Cedric Tillman: Limited snap count in loss

    Tillman was not targeted over seven snaps in Sunday's 31-3 loss to Chicago in Week 15.

    Tillman battled a concussion and a rib injury during the practice week but was eventually cleared and allowed to suit up. The snap volume indicates he may not have been 100 percent, however. Tillman normally is the No. 2 wideout behind Jerry Jeudy, but he saw less action Sunday than depth WRs Malachi Corley (15 snaps) and Gage Larvadain (31),

  • Bears' D'Marco Jackson: Huge performance in victory

    Jackson posted seven tackles, including two solo, with one interception and 1.0 sacks in the Bears' 31-3 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    Jackson has delivered highly variable tackle totals in four games as a starter, ranging from three to 15 stops, and this marked his first sack of the season. As long as he remains in an expanded role, his mix of splash plays and inconsistency makes him a volatile IDP option.

  • T.J. Edwards LB | CHI

    Bears' T.J. Edwards: Another steady outing

    Edwards recorded nine tackles, including five solo, in the Bears' 31-3 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    Edwards has now posted more than seven tackles twice over his last seven games while never falling below four stops in any contest this season. His dependable tackle floor keeps him in the moderate-floor IDP range on a weekly basis.

  • Bears' Olamide Zaccheaus: Inconsistent role continues

    Zaccheaus did not catch any of three targets in the Bears' 31-3 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    Zaccheaus has been held to seven or fewer yards in five of his last six contests while seeing reduced involvement in the offense. While his role has diminished of late, both Rome Odunze (foot) and Luther Burden (ankle) are currently dealing with injuries, which could allow Zaccheaus to see more usage in Week 16 against the Packers.

  • Gage Larvadain WR | CLE

    Browns' Gage Larvadain: Season-high snap count

    Larvadain caught one of two targets for eight yards and returned one punt for one yard in Sunday's 31-3 loss to the Bears in Week 15.

    Larvadain played a season-high 31 snaps on offense, as No. 2 wideout Cedric Tillman (seven snaps) was limited following a week in which he dealt with a concussion and a rib injury. Other than the increased snap volume, it was a normal week for Larvadain, who has five catches on eight targets for 49 yards the last three games.

  • Malachi Corley WR | CLE

    Browns' Malachi Corley: Targeted once in loss

    Corley caught his lone target for 10 yards and returned two kickoffs for 45 yards in Sunday's 31-3 loss to Chicago in Week 15.

    Corley was touch-and-go all week but eventually cleared the concussion protocol and suited up Sunday. He was back in a familiar role as a depth wideout and kickoff returner.
