Defensive Player of the Week: L'Jarius Sneed, Kansas City Chiefs
Sneed was targeted four times against the Rams, and while he allowed three catches, they went for a grand total of just 9 yards. He didn't give up a single first down and jumped in front of wideout Van Jefferson to pluck a pass right out of the air for an interception.
Sneed's 86.5 overall grade for the year now ranks second only to Sauce Gardner at the cornerback position.
