What happened: the same Amik Robertson who forced a pass breakup for the Commanders tops the league with 8 pass breakups this season. Quentin Lake sits second with 7, while Asante Samuel Jr. and Jacob Parrish are tied at 5 each.

Why it matters: Breakups stall drives without requiring turnovers, raising the value of early separation on third downs. Robertson logged 52 tackles and 1 interception across 17 games in 2025 with the Lions, while Parrish posted 76 tackles, 2 sacks and 2 interceptions across 17 games in 2025 with the Buccaneers.

By the numbers: Robertson 8, Lake 7, Samuel Jr. 5, Parrish 5, with 7 players tied at 4. Samuel logged 10 tackles and 1 interception in 6 games in 2025 with the Steelers; Lake logged 61 tackles, 1 sack and 1 interception in 10 games in 2025 with the Rams.

What to watch: The next slate decides whether Lake erases the one-breakup deficit and whether Samuel or Parrish breaks the tie at five.
