James finished Sunday's loss to Jacksonville with five tackles (two solo) and a defensed pass.

James notched his first defensed pass since Week 6 and upped his tackle total after recording just three stops against Pittsburgh in Week 10. The veteran defensive back has posted 65 tackles, including 1.5 sacks, along with four defensed passes (including an interception) through 11 contests on the campaign.

Landman posted seven tackles (six solo) and a forced fumble during the Rams' 21-19 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.

Landman finished Sunday's game tied with Omar Speights for the second-most tackles on the Rams behind Kamren Curl (11). Landman was also credited with a forced fumble for a third consecutive game, and the fourth-year linebacker is up to 90 tackles (44 solo), including 1.5 sacks, four pass defenses, four forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries through 10 regular-season games.

Wagner logged eight tackles (four solo) and a defensed pass Sunday in a Week 11 overtime loss to Miami.

Wagner continues to provide steady output as a tackler, as he's recorded at least seven stops in all 11 of Washington's games so far this year. He has slowed down from a torrid season-opening pace, though -- Wagner has finished with single-digit tackles in five of his past six contests after reaching the double-digit mark in each of the first five weeks of the campaign. That's nitpicking his big-time production, though, as the veteran linebacker ranks second in the NFL with 107 stops through 11 weeks.

Curl posted 11 tackles (nine solo) during the Rams' 21-19 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.

Curl led both teams with a season-high 11 tackles while playing every single defensive snap, and his nine solo tackles tied a career high he set in Week 13 of the 2022 season as a member of the Commanders. The fifth-year safety is up to 79 combined tackles through 10 regular-season games, which matches his total across 16 contests during the 2024 regular season.

Queen finished with 10 tackles (five solo) in a 34-12 victory versus Cincinnati in Week 11 on Sunday.

Queen led the Steelers in tackles while reaching the double-digit mark for the second straight week. The veteran linebacker is up to 78 stops on the season, putting him well on pace to reach the triple-digit mark for the fifth time over his six-year NFL career.

Kinchens registered four tackles (three solo) and two interceptions during the Rams' 21-19 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.

The 2024 third-rounder logged four interceptions during his rookie season but was held without a pick through the first nine games of the 2025 regular season. That quickly changed during Sunday's NFC West clash, when Kinchens picked off a Sam Darnold pass intended for Cooper Kupp on the Seahawks' first offensive series of the game and the Rams capitalized with a Kyren Williams' one-yard touchdown run four plays later. Kinchens picked off Darnold again late in the third frame, and the Rams once again made the most of the opportunity via a six-yard touchdown pass from Matthew Stafford to Colby Parkinson four plays later. Sunday marked the second time in Kinchens' young NFL career that he recorded two interceptions in a game, and the 23-year-old safety has accumulated 48 tackles (32 solo), five pass defenses and two fumble recoveries through 10 regular-season games.

David logged four tackles (three solo) and one forced fumble during the Buccaneers' 44-32 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

David played every single defensive snap for a second straight game (and sixth time of the season), but his four stops were his third lowest of the 2025 campaign. The veteran linebacker is up to 70 combined stops through 10 regular-season games, and despite his low tackling output Sunday, he is on track to record 100-plus tackles for a fourth consecutive season and 12th time overall in his career.

Pierre posted six tackles (three solo), two defensed passes and a fumble recovery, which he returned for a touchdown, in Sunday's 34-12 victory over the Bengals.

Pierre got the start and logged every one of the Steelers' defensive snaps with Darius Slay (concussion) unable to play. Pierre responded with a big game, finishing third on the Steelers in stops and recording two defensed passes. His biggest play came late in the fourth quarter, when he put the finishing touch on a Pittsburgh victory by recovering a fumble and taking it 34 yards to the house for a touchdown. It was the first score for Pierre in his six-year NFL career.

Laulu (ribs) is questionable to return to Monday's game against the Cowboys.

Laula injured his ribs during the first quarter of Monday's game, and he's being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return. With Leki Fotu (coach's decision) inactive, Thomas Booker should see more snaps at defensive tackle alongside Adam Butler for as long as Laula is out of the game.

Dugger recorded three tackles (all solo) and an interception, which he returned for a touchdown, in Sunday's 34-12 win over Cincinnati.

With Pittsburgh ahead by just four points and the Bengals driving late in the third quarter, Dugger intercepted a Joe Flacco pass intended for Tee Higgins and returned it 73 yards for a touchdown. It was Dugger's first pickoff as a member of the Steelers and his first touchdown since he scored three times with New England in 2022. Since being traded to Pittsburgh on Oct. 28, Dugger has posted 12 tackles and two defensed passes over three contests.
