Ioannidis had three tackles (two solo) and two sacks during Sunday's 29-21 win over the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
Ioannidis played a season-low 63 percent of defensive snaps, but that didn't prevent him from bringing down Kyle Allen twice Sunday. The 25-year-old tied his career high with 7.5 sacks and also has 52 tackles (33 solo) through 12 games.

Ioannidis had two tackles (one solo) and a sack in Sunday's win against Detroit.
EDGE Analysis
Ioannidis now has 5.5 sacks through 11 games and may be able to eclipse his career high of 7.5 sacks. The 25-year-old played 81 percent of defensive snaps Sunday and should continue to see a heavy workload Week 13 at Carolina.

Ioannidis recorded four solo tackles and a sack in Sunday's 24-9 loss to the Bills.
EDGE Analysis
Ioannidis now has two sacks over his last two contests and 4.5 through the first nine games. The fourth-year pro will head into the Week 10 bye with the team-lead in the category, and he'll look to add to his total Nov. 17 against the Jets.

Ioannidis had nine tackles (eight solo) in Sunday's 9-0 loss to the 49ers.
EDGE Analysis
It's somewhat unusual for a defensive end to rack up so many tackles, but the 49ers ran the ball 39 times and averaged only 3.5 YPC, providing Ioannidis plenty of opportunities. The 24-year-old has 34 tackles (21 solo) and 2.5 sacks through seven games.

Ioannidis posted five tackles (three solo), 0.5 sacks and three QB hits in Sunday's 33-7 loss to the Patriots.
EDGE Analysis
It's a down year for Ioannidis' pass-rush department, as he has just 1.5 sacks through five games after posting 7.5 in 14 contests last year. He has a good opportunity to get back on track in Week 6 against the Dolphins, as Josh Rosen has been sacked 10 times in the last three games.

Ioannidis recorded four tackles (three solo) and a sack across 55 defensive snaps in Monday's loss to the Bears.
EDGE Analysis
Ioannidis logged his first sack of the season, taking down Mitch Triubisky down halfway through the first quarter. He now has 13 career sacks over his four-year career. He'll shift his focus to apply pressure to rookie Daniel Jones this Sunday.

Ioannidis worked with the first-team defense at OTAs, Tarik El-Bashir of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old appears to have made a full recovery from the hamstring injury that cost him Week 17 last season. He finished the year with 7.5 sacks on just 439 defensive snaps, joining Jonathan Allen (eight sacks) and Daron Payne (five sacks) to give Washington an impressive young trio on the line. Ioannidis is locked in as a crucial part of the team's defense after signing a three-year, $21.75 million extension in April.

The Redskins signed Ioannidis (hamstring) to a three-year, $21.75 million extension Thursday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Washington now has all three pieces of its starting defensive line locked in through 2021. While Ioannidis doesn't get as much recognition as first-round teammates Jonathan Allen and Da'Ron Payne, the 2016 fourth-rounder has received comparably strong grades as a pass rusher from Pro Football Focus each of the past two seasons and is coming off a 2018 campaign in which he netted 7.5 sacks in 14 games. However, it isn't clear where he stands in his recovery from the hamstring injury that cost Ioannidis the final two games of the year.

Ioannidis (hamstring) finished the 2018 season with 31 tackles (23 solo) and 7.5 sacks in 14 games.
EDGE Analysis
Ioannidis did his damage on just 439 snaps, while fellow defensive linemen Da'Ron Payne and Jonathan Allen both approached 800. The Redskins have Ioannidis under team control for one more season, and while he's done his part to earn a long-term extension, the team has already devoted considerable resources to its defensive front, including first-round picks on Payne and Allen. That's not to say there won't be discussions about an extension, but it won't come as any surprise if Ioannidis simply plays out the final year of his contract and then cashes in elsewhere during the 2020 offseason. He should have plenty of time to recover from the hamstring injury that caused him to miss Week 17.
