Elliss registered five solo tackles, including 1.0 sacks, during the Falcons' 30-27 overtime loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

Elliss finished Sunday's game tied for the fourth-most tackles on the Falcons, including a one-yard sack on Bryce Young midway through the third quarter. Elliss has logged a sack in back-to-back games and is up to 3.5 sacks through 10 regular-season games.

Bates recorded eight tackles (six solo) during the Falcons' 30-27 overtime loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

Bates played every single defensive snap for a third consecutive game (and eighth time this season) and finished second on the Falcons in tackles behind Ronnie Harrison (11). Bates is up to 64 tackles (32 solo), three pass defenses (two interceptions) and a forced fumble through 10 regular-season games.

Hufanga totaled six tackles (three solo) and a defensed pass Sunday in a 22-19 victory against the Chiefs.

Hufanga's tackle total tied for second most on the Broncos. The veteran safety also recorded his ninth defensed pass of the season, tying a career-high mark. That total is also tied for 11th most in the NFL through 11 weeks.

Harrison posted 11 tackles (nine solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one pass defense during the Falcons' 30-27 overtime loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

Harrison led the Falcons with a season-high 11 tackles during Sunday's OT loss while playing 93 total snaps (78 on defense, 15 on special teams). He recorded a sack for a second consecutive game after getting to Bryce Young for a seven-yard loss early in the fourth quarter, which led to the Panthers punting on the very next play. Harrison has earned a larger role in the Falcons' defense after being signed off the practice squad to the active roster in late October, though his defensive snap count would take a hit if Divine Deablo (forearm) is activated from injured reserve ahead of Atlanta's Week 12 clash against New Orleans.

Strnad tallied 10 tackles (four solo) Sunday in a 22-19 win over the Chiefs.

Strnad logged a start with Alex Singleton (illness) missing the contest. Strnad ended up reaching a career-high mark with 10 stops, which paced the Broncos in the big victory. Denver is on bye in Week 12, and it's unclear if Singleton will be back for Week 13. If not, Strnad figures to get another start at linebacker.

McMillian logged six tackles (five solo), including 2.0 sacks, and intercepted a pass in Sunday's 22-19 win over the Chiefs.

McMillian was a menace to Kansas City throughout the contest and made a tangible impact in Denver's win. He ended the first half with a sack of Patrick Mahomes, then picked off Mahomes early in the third quarter after the Chiefs had driven deep into Broncos territory. McMillian returned the pickoff 63 yards, setting up a Denver touchdown. For good measure, he sacked Mahomes again on a third-down play late in the fourth period, forcing a punt as the Chiefs were trying to mount a comeback. With the big effort, McMillian doubled his sack total to 4.0 on the campaign, while the pickoff was his first this season.

Gray posted 11 tackles (six solo) and two pass defenses during the Titans' 16-13 loss to the Texans on Sunday.

Gray played every single defensive snap for the first time this season and logged double-digit tackles for the sixth time in seventh games, though he finished second on the Titans in tackles behind Darrell Baker (12). Gray mostly served on special teams across seven regular-season games in 2024, but the second-year linebacker has stepped up in a big way during his sophomore campaign. He is up to 102 combined tackles through 10 regular-season games, which is third most in the NFL behind Jordyn Brooks (125) and Bobby Wagner (107).

Baker posted 12 tackles (nine solo) and a pass defense during the Titans' 16-13 loss to the Texans on Sunday.

Baker entered Week 11 having not recorded more than five tackles through nine regular-season games, but he was far busier during Sunday's AFC South tilt and finished with a game-high 12 stops. Baker has stepped into a larger role in the Titans' secondary over the team's last four games, a development that's coincided with L'Jarius Sneed (quadriceps) being placed on injured reserve and Roger McCreary being traded to the Rams, both which took place in late October. Baker and the Titans will welcome in the Seahawks in Week 12.

James finished Sunday's loss to Jacksonville with five tackles (two solo) and a defensed pass.

James notched his first defensed pass since Week 6 and upped his tackle total after recording just three stops against Pittsburgh in Week 10. The veteran defensive back has posted 65 tackles, including 1.5 sacks, along with four defensed passes (including an interception) through 11 contests on the campaign.

Landman posted seven tackles (six solo) and a forced fumble during the Rams' 21-19 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.

Landman finished Sunday's game tied with Omar Speights for the second-most tackles on the Rams behind Kamren Curl (11). Landman was also credited with a forced fumble for a third consecutive game, and the fourth-year linebacker is up to 90 tackles (44 solo), including 1.5 sacks, four pass defenses, four forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries through 10 regular-season games.
