Styles recorded five tackles (four solo) and two passes defensed, including one interception, as well as a forced fumble in the Commanders' 33-31 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.

Styles and fellow linebacker Kain Medrano combine for two interceptions in Sunday's contest. Styles caught the first pick in the third quarter, intercepting Sam Darnold on first down at the Seahawks' 43-yard line. The linebacker also played all 67 defensive snaps for the Commanders in the close win.

Medrano logged five tackles (three solo) and one pass defensed for a 50-yard pick-six in the Commanders' 33-31 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.

Medrano intercepted Sam Darnold late in the fourth quarter, taking the pick 50 yards to the house to extend the Commanders' three-point lead to 10 points with 3:57 left to play. The linebacker's heroics all but secured the win. Medrano was starting due to the absence of Frankie Luvu (groin).

Thieneman registered six tackles (four solo) and an interception during the Bears' 27-7 win over the Eagles on Sunday.

Thieneman picked off Andy Dalton on a pass intended for Dontayvion Wicks in the end zone, and the Bears' offense capitalized on the turnover with an 11-play, 69-yard drive that ended with a 29-yard field goal by Cairo Santos to extend Chicago's lead to 10-0. Thieneman has played every single defensive snap through the first three regular-season games of his NFL career, and his 15 solo tackles are tied for seventh-most in the league.

Knight made nine tackles (two solo) in the Bengals' 30-27 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.

Knight played 56 defensive snaps in the contest, good for 90% of the Bengals' defensive plays. The weakside linebacker led the team in tackles but was unable to do much more in a close shootout loss.

Lawrence logged four tackles (three solo), including 2.0 sacks, in the Bengals' 30-27 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.

The offseason addition to the Bengals' defensive line dominated in Sunday's game, showing why he commanded the tenth overall pick in the 2026 draft as trade capital. Lawrence sacked Aaron Rodgers two times in the contest and accumulated another two tackles, anchoring the middle of the Bengals' 4-3 defensive front.

Buckner registered seven tackles (two solo), including 1.5 sacks, during the Colts' 19-17 win over the Texans in Week 3.

Buckner was responsible for two of the Colts' three sacks on C.J. Stroud in Sunday's win. The veteran defensive lineman got to Stroud early in the first quarter for a four-yard sack before Buckner combined with Adetomiwa Adebawore for a two-yard takedown of the Texans QB late in the second quarter. Buckner has logged at least 0.5 sacks in each of the first three games of the regular season and is up to 3.0 sacks on the year, which leads the Colts and is tied for eighth-most in the NFL.

Wingard made 10 tackles (one solo) in the Cardinals' 36-30 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.

Wingard led the Cardinals in tackles Sunday, beating out Jack Gibbens' eight. The free safety played all 54 of the team's defensive snaps in the close loss. While participating in 10 tackles, Wingard only brought down one ball carrier by himself in the contest.

Edmunds logged 10 tackles (six solo) and one pass defensed in the Giants' 12-7 win over the Titans.

Edmunds played all 60 of the Giants' defensive snaps in the low-scoring win. The inside linebacker's 10 tackles would often be enough to lead a team, but Arvell Reese totalled 13 tackles en route to the Giants allowing just seven points in the contest. Edmunds had a strong bounceback game after being unable to record a single solo tackle in the Giants' Week 3 loss to the Rams.

Phillips made 11 tackles (eight solo) in the Giants' 12-7 win over the Titans.

Phillips played 49 defensive snaps in the contest, good for 82 percent of the Giants' total defensive plays. The cornerback may not have reached Arvell Reese's 13 tackles, but he put up a strong effort for a smaller player. Phillips regularly defended his zones and the Titans' attempts to run outside in the contest, contributing to the Giants' defensive win.

Blankenship posted nine tackles (five solo) and two pass defenses (including one interception) during the Texans' 19-17 loss to the Colts in Week 3.

Blankenship recorded his first interception of the season early in the third quarter, when he jumped in front of a floating pass from Danny Jones that was intended for Josh Downs deep in Houston's territory. It was Blankenship's second interception over the past two years after recording a career-high four picks across 15 regular-season games with the Eagles in 2024. His presence in the secondary will be crucial in Week 4 when the Texans welcome in the Cowboys, whose offense ranks in the top-10 in the league in points per game (29.3).
