Dillon handled three carries for minus-3 yards during Sunday's 34-3 win at Atlanta. He also recorded a tackle in punt coverage.

Dillon once again was not really involved in Week 2 until the game was well in hand, although this time the lopsided result was in the Panthers' favor, and the Falcons evidently knew the run was coming. Carolina may have to lean on him more in Week 3 if 2024 second-rounder Jonathon Brooks (groin) ends up being unavailable.

Styles recorded three total tackles during Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Cowboys.

Styles was on the field for all 55 of the team's defensive snaps with fellow inside linebacker Frankie Luvu (groin) unavailable versus Dallas. Styles didn't see an increase in production, but his usage seems to suggest that the rookie is already a highly trusted member of the defense. Through two contests, he has compiled seven total tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks.

Edmunds logged five assisted tackles and one pass defensed in Monday's 28-6 loss to the Rams.

Edmunds did not record a solo tackle in Sunday's contest but assisted on five takedowns. The linebacker played 100 percent of the Giants' defensive snaps for the second consecutive week, now having been on the field for all 118 defensive plays this season.

Okereke recorded nine tackles (six solo) and an interception in Sunday's 34-3 win over the Falcons.

Okereke signed with the Panthers just over three weeks ago and has already carved out a prominent role at linebacker alongside Devin Lloyd. Both made noise against Atlanta, as the duo combined for three interceptions. Through two games, Okereke has logged 15 tackles (nine solo), one QB hit and the interception on one pass breakup across 80.6 percent of the Panthers' defensive snaps.

Bush recorded four tackles (three solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 9-3 loss versus the Vikings.

Bush played all 52 of Chicago's defensive snaps in Week 2, but he only managed four tackles, even against a run-heavy Minnesota attack. Managers relying on him for IDP production will be hoping for more in a Week 3 tilt versus the Eagles.

Edwards recorded four tackles (two solo) during Sunday's 9-3 loss versus the Vikings.

Edwards played on 100 percent of the Bears' defensive snaps for the second time in as many games to open the season. However, Edwards' tackle total remained modest, and he'll look to boost his production in a Week 3 matchup against the Eagles.

Chenal recorded 12 total tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Cowboys.

Chenal stepped into a starting role at inside linebacker with Frankie Luvu (groin) sidelined, and he responded by leading the team in takedowns in the loss. If Luvu remains sidelined in Week 3, Chenal will have a chance to be busy again versus Seattle.

Davis posted four tackles (three solo) during the Jets' 20-17 overtime loss to the Packers on Sunday.

Davis was one of six Jets players to play all 59 defensive snaps during Sunday's OT loss. The veteran linebacker is up to 12 total tackles through two games and on pace to crack 100 tackles for a 10th straight year and the 13th time in his NFL career. He should stay busy Week 3 against the Lions on Sunday.

Holland logged eight tackles (five solo), one pass defensed for an interception and one fumble recovery in Monday's 28-6 loss to the Rams.

Holland tied Tyler Nubin for the most Giants tackles in Monday's loss. The free safety picked off reigning MVP Matthew Stafford in the second quarter of the game as the Giants tried to mount a comeback. Holland also helped force and recovered a Kyren Williams fumble at the Rams' 11-yard line late in the first half, setting up the first of two field goals that constituted New York's scoring Monday night.

Elliss recorded six tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 24-17 win at Baltimore.

Elliss again led Saints linebackers in defensive snaps (58) in Week 2, and he racked up six-plus tackles for his third straight contest going back to last season. He will likely play a similarly large role at linebacker in Week 3 versus the Raiders.
