First Team All-Havoc

CB- Mike Hilton(1), Cincinnati: Hilton had 6 tackles, 3 for loss and added an interception in the Bengals 37-27 victory over Tennessee on Sunday.

His 83.8 season Havoc Rating is 28th best for corners.

CB-Derek Stingley Jr.(3), Houston: Stingley makes his 3rd All-Havoc team of the season with a 5 tackle, 2 interception performance in the win over Miami. The Houston win, coupled with the Colts loss, locked up the division for the Texans. Stingley led all corners in week 15 Coverage Havoc and his 96.2 season Havoc Rating is best in the league among corners.

CB- Sauce Gardner(2), NYJ: In the midst of what has been a mostly disappointing season for Sauce, he had 5 tackles and his first interception of the season in the Jets win over Jacksonville. Gardner was third in coverage Havoc and top 20 against the run in week 15. The numbers back up the claim of a disappointing season for Sauce. With a Havoc Rating of 81.6, he ranks just 44th among corners in 2024.

S- Brandon Jones(1), Denver: Jones had 9 tackles and an interception in week 15 for a Denver defensive unit that is playing like the best defense in the league as of late.

S- Brian Branch(3), Detroit: Branch had 15 tackles and a pass defended in the Lions loss to the Bills.

LB- Demario Davis(2), New Orleans: Davis had 14 tackles and a sack in the narrow one point loss to the Commanders on Sunday.
