Werner recorded 11 tackles (seven solo) and one pass defended during Sunday's 24-0 win against the Raiders.

EDGE Analysis

Werner logged his third double-digit tackle outing of the season and played all but one of the Saints' defensive snaps Week 8. The second-year linebacker has quickly emerged as one of the NFL's top tacklers after stepping into a starting role this season, and he now sits at 71 stops (52 solo), three passes defended and two forced fumbles over eight games in 2022. Werner should be in line for another productive outing during next Monday's game against the Ravens.

Werner recorded six tackles during Sunday's 30-26 loss to the Bengals.

EDGE Analysis

Werner played 95 percent of the team's defensive snaps Sunday en route to a six-tackle performance. The second-year linebacker currently leads the Saints with 53 tackles through the first six weeks of the season, and he'll likely have another busy night Thursday in Arizona.

Werner recorded seven tackles (five solo) and one forced fumble during Sunday's 39-32 win over the Seahawks.

EDGE Analysis

Werner stripped DK Metcalf on the first play of the third quarter, which served as the Saints' lone takeaway in Week 5. The second-year linebacker played 88 percent of the team's defensive snaps Sunday, and he now has 47 tackles and two forced fumbles through five contests. Werner will look to build off this strong performance when the team hosts Cincinnati on Sunday.

Werner generated nine tackles (eight solo) during the Saints' 28-25 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Although Werner fell just short of recording double-digit tackles for a second consecutive week, he remained consistent during the Saints' game in London. The 2021 second-rounder racked up 62 tackles last year and already has 40 tackles (32 solo), a pass defense and a forced fumble over the first four games of the 2022 campaign.

Werner tallied 11 tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 22-14 loss to the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

Werner led the Saints in combined and solo tackles after playing all but two of the team's defensive snaps in Week 3. After shifting into a full-time starting role, the second-year linebacker currently leads New Orleans in combined (32) and solo (24) tackles through three games. Werner is on track to finish as the team's leading tackler and one of the league's most productive defenders in 2022, barring any injuries.

Werner contributed eight tackles (six solo) and a pass defensed in the Saints' 20-10 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Werner delivered another solid performance coming off his 13 tackle Week 1 effort. His 18 solo tackles now lead the league. The second-year pro moved into a full-time starting role this season and is proving early that he deserved it. If he is able to continue putting up these numbers he should be on the IDP radar of fantasy managers.

Werner had 13 tackles (12 solo), including one tackle for loss, in Sunday's 27-26 win over the Falcons.

EDGE Analysis

Werner was limited during the week due to a groin injury, but he didn't look limited whatsoever in the season opener, leading the Saints in tackles. The 2021 second-round pick had 62 tackles as a rookie, but Werner's expected to blow past that mark as a full-time starter in his second season.

Werner (groin) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's season opener against the Falcons, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

EDGE Analysis

Werner was limited Wednesday and Thursday due to a groin injury, but he registered a full practice Friday and will be full go for Sunday. The 2021 second-round pick operated as a rotational piece for the Saints as a rookie, but he's in line for an increased role in 2022 after the departure of Kwon Alexander during the offseason.

Saints head coach Dennis Allen said Werner is dealing with a groin injury again, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

EDGE Analysis

Werner started training camp on the NFI list due to an undisclosed injury but was activated August 1 and returned to practice. However, per Underhill's report, it sounds like Werner has suffered a setback and may be sidelined again. The 2021 second-round pick operated as a rotational piece for the Saints defense last year but is in line for an increased role after the departure of Kwon Alexander earlier this offseason.

Werner was activated from the Saints' active/non-football injury list Monday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Werner appears ready to return to active participation just five days after he opened training camp on the NFI list with an undisclosed injury. The 2021 second-round pick started eight of 15 games while serving a rotational role for the Saints last year, and he figures to see increased playing time after the departure of fellow linebacker Kwon Alexander in free agency earlier this offseason.
