Kyle Van Noy (2010–13): Van Noy recorded a career-high 13 total tackles in New England's surprising 34-10 loss to the Tennessee Titans. Van Noy currently ranks first on the Patriots and 11th in the AFC with 66 total tackles.

Taysom Hill (2012–16): Hill ran four times for 24 yards, recorded a special teams tackle and lined up at tight end on several occasions. In addition, he nearly threw a touchdown on a jump pass trick play (similar to the types of passes Tim Tebow would throw) until the receiver dropped the ball. Hill's Saints routed the Cincinnati Bengals 51-14 and currently sit atop the NFL power rankings.

Daniel Sorensen (2008, 11–13): The Chiefs strong safety made his first appearance of the season following a knee injury. He recorded five total tackles in a 26-14 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Ezekiel Ansah (2010–12): The Lions defensive end made one tackle in a 34-22 loss to the Chicago Bears.

Michael Davis (2013–16): The linebacker-turned-cornerback earned the start for the Chargers, recording four tackles and a pass deflection in a 20-6 victory over the Oakland Raiders.

Jamaal Williams (2012–16): Williams ran three times for three yards in a 31-12 Packers victory over the Miami Dolphins.
