Colts' Laiatu Latu: Getting after quarterback
Latu recorded two tackles (zero solo), including 0.5 sacks, in Sunday's 38-14 win over the Titans.
Latu helped end the Titans' first offensive possession, taking down Cam Ward on third down for a six-yard loss. He now has 2.5 sacks, 17 total tackles and two interceptions across seven games for the season. The 2024 first-rounder is consistently seeing between 50 and 73 percent of defensive snaps.

Zaire Franklin OLB | GB
Colts' Zaire Franklin: Disappointing season continues
Franklin recorded two tackles (zero solo) in Sunday's 38-14 win over the Titans.
Franklin was among many of the Colts' defensive starters to see their snap rate cut due to the game script. He logged a season low in tackles as a result. While this result was largely out of his control, Franklin has been among the most disappointing IDP options around the league halfway through the campaign.

Germaine Pratt LB | IND
Colts' Germaine Pratt: Eight tackles in win
Pratt recorded eight tackles (three solo), including one for a loss, in Sunday's 38-14 win over the Titans.
Pratt led the team in tackles despite seeing his snap rate decrease for the third straight game, this time likely due to game script. He has 23 total tackles in three contests since joining the Colts and should continue to work alongside Zaire Franklin in the middle of the team's defense.

Mekhi Blackmon DB | CLE
Colts' Mekhi Blackmon: Quiet in win
Blackmon recorded three tackles (three solo) with one pass defensed in Sunday's 38-14 win over the Titans.
Most of the Colts' defensive starters sat late in the game due to the blowout game script, and Blackmon was no exception. He logged his lowest tackle total since Week 1 as a result, though he should bounce back in Week 9 against the Steelers.

Geno Stone SAF | BUF
Bengals' Geno Stone: Tallies nine tackles vs Jets
Stone logged nine tackles (seven solo) in the Bengals' loss to the Jets on Sunday.
Stone finished second on the team in tackles behind Demetrius Knight's 12. Stone is on pace to set a new career-high total in tackles, having already recorded 51 tackles (32 solo) across just eight games played. The 26-year-old will look to keep producing in the Week 9 matchup versus the Bears.

Titans' Dre'Mont Jones: Records sack in loss
Jones tallied two solo tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in Tennessee's loss to the Colts on Sunday.
Jones was one of the Titans' few bright spots during the blowout loss, as he recorded one of the team's two sacks. The 28-year-old has now registered a sack in three consecutive games and will look to keep the streak going during the Week 9 matchup versus the Chargers.

Cody Barton LB | TEN
Titans' Cody Barton: Quiet outing vs Colts
Barton logged three tackles (two solo) during the Titans' loss to the Colts on Sunday.
Barton played every defensive snap for Tennessee in the loss, a feat he has accomplished in all eight games to start the season. The 28-year-old has recorded 45 tackles (25 solo) so far this campaign and will look to add to his totals in the Week 9 matchup against the Chargers.

Titans' T'Vondre Sweat: Logs sack in loss
Sweat tallied two solo tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in Tennessee's loss to the Colts on Sunday.
Sweat has now recorded a sack in back-to-back games since returning from the ankle injury he suffered in the Week 1 loss versus the Broncos. The 24-year-old will look to build on this strong performance and keep producing in the Week 9 matchup versus the Chargers.

Falcons' JD Bertrand: Tallies nine tackles in loss
Bertrand logged nine tackles (three solo) in Atlanta's loss versus the Dolphins on Sunday.
Bertrand finished second on the team in tackles behind Kaden Elliss' 12. The 25-year-old has taken advantage of increased playing time over the past two weeks with Divine Deablo sidelined by a forearm injury, and has racked up 19 tackles (seven solo) over that span. Bertrand will look to keep producing in the Week 9 matchup against the Patriots.
