Buccaneers' Jamel Dean: Dominant in win
Dean tallied four tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, and an interception in Tampa Bay's win over the 49ers on Sunday.
Dean missed the Week 5 win over the Seahawks with a hip injury but had a dominant outing in his return.

He will look to build on this strong performance and keep producing in the Week 7 matchup versus the Lions.

Titans' Cody Barton: Notches pickoff in Week 6 loss
Barton recorded three tackles and an interception Sunday in a loss to Las Vegas.
Barton had a quiet day from a tackling standpoint, recording a season-low three stops. However, he made a big play early in the fourth quarter when he picked off Geno Smith with the Raiders having driven into field-goal range. Barton nearly had a bigger afternoon, but a fumble he initially appeared to return for a touchdown was overturned.
