Watts recorded two tackles (one solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 30-27 overtime loss versus the Panthers.

Watts had tallied at least four tackles in all but one of Atlanta's nine games leading up to Week 11, so Sunday's contest was disappointing for any fantasy managers hoping for IDP production. He should continue to play an every-down role in a Week 12 matchup at New Orleans.

Brisker posted three tackles (two solo) during the Bears' 19-17 win over the Vikings on Sunday.

Brisker was cleared to play in Sunday's NFC North clash after his practice reps during Week 11 prep were limited due to a back issue. It didn't appear to bother him all that much as he was on the field for 54 of 55 defensive snaps (98.2 percent), though it was the first time this season that he did not play every single defensive snap in a game. The fourth-year safety is up to 49 tackles (29 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and three pass defenses (one interception) through 10 regular-season games.

Brown tallied seven tackles (three solo) in San Francisco's win over the Cardinals on Sunday.

Brown finished tied for third on the team in tackles in the victory. The 25-year-old has been on a hot streak over the past two weeks, recording a combined 17 tackles (six solo). He'll look to carry this level of production into the Week 12 matchup versus the Panthers.

Buchanan recorded three tackles (two solo) and one pass defensed in Sunday's 23-16 win over the Browns.

Buchanan is the clear second linebacker in the middle of Baltimore's defense, but his snap rate has hovered around 70 percent in his last four games. He hadn't seen a significant dip in production until Sunday's win, as he had logged at least six tackles in every game since Week 1. Buchanan may have some volatile performances moving forward due to his imperfect role, but he's been reliable to this point.

Bowman recorded four tackles (four solo) including 1.0 sacks during Sunday's 30-27 overtime loss versus the Panthers.

Carolina quarterback Bryce Young was sacked five times in Week 11, including the first full sack of Bowman's young career. While the rookie has certainly shown some promise for Atlanta, his somewhat limited role as a nickel corner isn't translating to IDP viability in most formats.

Starks recorded two tackles (one solo) in Sunday's 23-16 win over the Browns.

Starks had his lowest tackle total since Week 4, also matching his season low. Positively, he maintained his typical role in the Baltimore defense, so he should have a chance to rebound in Week 12 against the Jets.

Sweat logged two tackles and a pass defense during Chicago's 19-17 win over Minnesota on Sunday.

Sweat recorded a quarterback hit during Sunday's win but was unable to extend his sack streak to five games. The veteran pass rusher has 5.5 sacks through 10 regular-season games, which matches his total from the 2024 regular season (across 16 games).

Stout tallied seven tackles (two solo) and forced a fumble in San Francisco's win versus the Cardinals on Sunday.

Stout recorded his first forced fumble of the campaign during the victory. The 23-year-old has gotten off to a strong start during his rookie campaign, totaling 51 tackles (26 solo), including 1.0 sacks, across his first 10 games played.

Walker recorded four tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 30-27 overtime loss versus the Panthers.

Walker logged 3.0 sacks over the two games prior to Sunday's contest, but he was blanked in that category in Week 11. He'll be hoping to get back in the sack column in a Week 12 matchup against the division-rival Saints.

Wiggins recorded four tackles (four solo), one interception and one pass defensed in Sunday's 23-16 win over the Browns.

Wiggins made a key interception midway through the third quarter, setting up the Ravens with excellent field position. He now has three picks on the season, two of which have come against the Browns. Wiggins has also recorded at least four stops for the fourth straight game, something he achieved only twice in his first six contests.
