Winfield posted six tackles (four solo) and one pass defense during the Buccaneers' 44-32 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

Winfield was limited by a foot injury during Week 11 prep, but that didn't seem to bother him during Sunday's game, as he played every single defensive snap while finishing tied with Zyon McCollum for the most tackles on the Buccaneers. Winfield has recorded at least six stops in four of his last five games and is up to 48 tackles (31 solo), including 1.0 sacks, five pass defenses (one interception), one forced fumble and one fumble recovery through 10 regular-season games.

Thomas recorded one tackle (one solo) and a fumble recovery during Sunday's 21-19 loss against the Rams.

Thomas' tackle total in Week 11 was his lowest since Week 2, but he partially salvaged the day by scooping up a Puka Nacua fumble early in the third quarter to set up a Seahawks field goal. Owing to a recent uptick in playing time, he's firmly on the IDP radar going into a Week 12 tilt at Tennessee.

Crosby recorded five tackles (three solo) along with one sack, one tackle for loss and one forced fumble in Monday's 33-16 loss to the Cowboys.

Crosby made his mark on the game early on, sacking Dak Prescott and forcing a fumble on the Cowboys' second possession. He also recorded at least five tackles for the fifth time this season. Crosby remains a bright spot for an otherwise overmatched Raiders' defense.

Lawrence recorded two tackles (zero solo) during Sunday's 21-19 loss against the Rams.

Lawrence came crashing back down to Earth in Week 11 coming off a two-touchdown performance versus the Cardinals in Week 10. He logged at least half a sack in all four games prior to Sunday, but he was blanked in that category against the Seahawks' top rival for the division. He'll be looking to start a new streak against the pass-happy Titans in Week 12.

Chinn recorded six tackles (two solo) in Monday's 33-16 loss to the Cowboys.

Chinn had a modest game relative to his production the rest of the season, with his six tackles marking his lowest total since Week 6. Overall, he's second on the Raiders with 70 stops and has a minimum of six tackles in all but two games this season.

Dennis posted four tackles and an interception during Tampa Bay's 44-32 loss to Buffalo on Sunday.

Dennis played every defensive snap during Sunday's game, and he recorded his first interception of career in the second quarter, when he caught a Josh Allen pass intended for Dawson Knox that was tipped by Tykee Smith. Dennis has played every defensive snap in each of his last three games and is up to 64 tackles (42 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and one pass defense through 10 regular-season games.

Okada recorded six tackles (two solo) during Sunday's 21-19 loss against the Rams.

The Seahawks actually held the ball for the bulk of the Week 11 contest, and Okada logged his lowest defensive snap count (46) since Week 4 at Arizona. He still managed to collect six tackles though, perhaps appeasing some fantasy managers relying on him for IDP production. He'll remain on the outer fringes of IDP relevance for a Week 12 matchup at Tennessee.

Nelson posted two tackles (one solo) during the Buccaneers' 44-32 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

Nelson was able to shake off an illness to suit up Sunday and played 60 total snaps (49 on defense, 11 on special teams), though his tackle count was his lowest since Week 5 against the Seahawks (one). The 2019 fourth-rounder has started in each of the Buccaneers' last three games, which has coincided with the absence of Haason Reddick (ankle). Nelson is up to 29 tackles (16 solo), including 3.0 sacks, two forced fumbles and a pick-six through 10 regular-season games.

Pola-Mao recorded nine tackles (four solo) in Monday's 33-16 loss to the Cowboys.

Pola-Mao has had a consistent role in the Las Vegas defense all season, but he has been particularly productive in the last few weeks. He's recorded at least nine tackles in three of his last four games and has also picked off a pass in that span.

Dallas activated Winfrey (back) from its injured reserve list Tuesday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Winfrey has missed the whole season to this point due to a back injury he suffered during practice ahead of Week 1, but he's now back in football shape after Week 11. If veteran Solomon Thomas continues to miss time with a calf injury, Winfrey could be in line for some of the leftover work at defensive tackle in Week 12 versus the Eagles.
