Broncos' Talanoa Hufanga: Six tackles in blowout loss
Hufanga made six tackles (two solo) in Monday's 31-10 loss to the Chiefs.
Hufanga played all 67 of the Broncos' defensive snaps in Monday's loss. The safety also played 21 percent of the team's snaps on special teams, logging five reps on kick and punt return coverage. Hufanga had a relatively solid night outside of a missed tackle on rookie running back Emmett Johnson at the start of the fourth quarter.

Broncos' Talanoa Hufanga: Sets career high in tackles
Hufanga recorded 106 tackles (67 solo), including 2.0 sacks, 11 passes defensed and one forced fumble over 17 games in 2025.
Hufanga's first year with the Broncos was undoubtedly a success, as the veteran safety finished the season with the second-most tackles of any Broncos defender behind only Alex Singleton (135). The 25-year-old signed a three-year deal with Denver in 2025 after spending the first four years of his career in San Francisco, and he has proven to be a key contributor for the Broncos in just his first season with the team. Looking ahead to the 2026 campaign, Hufanga will look to build upon his strong start in the Mile High City, helping the Broncos to continue to boast one of the league's best defenses again next season.

Broncos' Talanoa Hufanga: Another quiet performance
Hufanga had three solo tackles during the Broncos' 34-26 win over the Packers on Sunday.
Hufanga played every single defensive snap for the eighth time this season and fifth time over his last six games, but his three stops were his lowest since Week 4 against the Bengals (one). Hufanga is up to 97 combined tackles through 14 regular-season games, which matches his career high that he set in 2022 across 17 regular-season games as a member of the 49ers. The 2021 fifth-rounder should crack the tackling century mark during the Broncos' Week 16 tilt against the Jaguars this Sunday.

Broncos' Talanoa Hufanga: Mostly unremarkable day Sunday
Hufanga recorded five tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 24-17 win at Las Vegas.
Hufanga only had to play 44 defensive snaps in Week 14, contributing to a depressed tackle total compared to recent weeks. With 94 tackles through 13 games, he's now on the doorstep of the first 100-plus tackle season of his career and he should get plenty of opportunities in a matchup versus a run-first Packers offense in Week 15.

Broncos' Talanoa Hufanga: Career-high 13 tackles in OT win
Hufanga posted 13 tackles (10 solo) and one pass defense during the Broncos' 27-26 overtime win over the Commanders on Sunday.
Hufanga played every defensive snap for a fourth consecutive game (and seventh time this season), and he finished Sunday's OT win with a career-high 13 stops, two of which were for a loss. The fifth-year safety has logged double-digit tackles five times during his NFL career, three of which have occurred in 2025. He is up to 89 total tackles through 12 regular-season games and is well on pace to crack the century mark for the first time in his career.

Broncos' Talanoa Hufanga: Cleared to play SNF
Hufanga (illness) is active for Sunday night's game against the Commanders.
Hufanga was added to the Broncos' injury report Sunday morning due to an illness, but he has been cleared to play in the night cap after going through pregame warmups. In his first year with the Broncos, the 2021 fifth-rounder has accumulated 76 tackles (44 solo), including 2.0 sacks, nine pass defenses and one forced fumble through 11 regular-season games.
