Lions' Alex Anzalone: Decent showing in overtime win
Anzalone recorded six tackles (two solo) during Sunday's 34-27 overtime win versus the Giants.
Anzalone has now posted at least six tackles in three of his last four games, but one might have assumed he would collect more in a game where he played a season-high 74 defensive snaps. His per-snap tackle production is at its lowest level this season since before he joined the Lions back in 2021, keeping him out of the IDP picture in most formats despite his large role.

Lions' Alex Anzalone: Registers six stops vs. Eagles
Anzalone registered six tackles (four solo) during the Lions' 16-9 loss to Philadelphia on Sunday.
Anzalone finished Sunday's game in a three-way tie for the second most tackles on the Lions behind Jack Campbell (15). Anzalone's streak of playing every single defensive snap ended at seven games in Week 11, but the veteran linebacker is still having a productive season and has logged at least five tackles in four of his last five games. The 2017 third-rounder is up to 57 tackles (33 solo), including 1.5 sacks, and four pass defenses (one interception) through 10 regular-season games.

Lions' Alex Anzalone: Nabs a pick in win
Anzalone recorded three tackles (two solo) and three passes defensed including an interception during Sunday's 37-24 win at Cincinnati.
Anzalone's three tackles marked his lowest total of the season, but he made his day memorable anyway when he undercut a Jake Browning pass intended for Mike Gesicki to post his first interception since 2022. He should again stay on the field for every defensive snap he can handle in Week 6 at Kansas City.

Lions' Alex Anzalone: Returns to field
Anzalone (hamstring) returned to practice Saturday, Colton Pouncy of The Athletic reports.
In addition to his hamstring injury, Anzalone wants a contract extension as he heads into the final season of his three-year, $18.75 million contract. The 30-year-old linebacker looks ready to play regardless, and he's set to start at outside linebacker in 2025. Last season, Anzalone posted 63 tackles (43 solo), five pass breakups and 1.0 sacks over 10 regular-season games.

Lions' Alex Anzalone: Sidelined by hamstring injury
Anzalone (hamstring) isn't practicing Monday, Nolan Bianchi of the Detroit News reports.
Anzalone's locked in as a starter when healthy, but he's back on the mend again in training camp after being limited to 10 regular-season appearances in 2024 by a broken forearm. Detroit will likely take a cautious approach with this new soft-tissue injury for Anzalone, who has 395 tackles over the past four regular seasons with the Lions.
